609 miles + 330ci =

Not bad eh?

it was a mixture of city and motorway driving, however it does include a 500mile round trip to Manchester A14 > A1 > M62

Still, pretty impressed

Dont people normally get ~36-38 on long trips?

antijoke · 28 Apr 2010 at 16:52

Mine is currently around 20MPG!

Err dont see whats special?

Did a return trip from Durham to London last week and returned an average MPG of 65.9, calculated at the pump.

Spamalot · 28 Apr 2010 at 16:57

Same as above.

On a go-kart?

Over about 6000 miles, mine has settled on 26.1 MPG.

I suspect you'd be able to get 40+ MPG if you were insanely careful.

Nick1881 · 28 Apr 2010 at 17:14

I had mine reading just over 40mpg on a trip to london, I was doing 65-70 mph mostly tucked in behind a small coach lol.

[TW]Fox · 28 Apr 2010 at 17:14

I did Plymouth to Worcester and back at the weekend without being in economy mode at all.

33.2mpg.

NickXX · 28 Apr 2010 at 17:15

You could do that distance on one tank in 330cd...

I have also averaged that MPG over 150 miles or so in my M3.

Ben Cole · 28 Apr 2010 at 17:15

That's not very good. I had the 1660kg 330 sport cab and got 39.1mpg driving from London to South Wales at a true 65-70mph.

Since we're talking MPG. VX220 Turbo (modified) AT. 70mph (except 50mph roadwork sections) from Soton to South Wales last week 50.0mpg. :eek:

What about oil consumption?

I bet it only used 500ml in that distance!

lordrobs · 28 Apr 2010 at 18:39

That seems disappointingly low to me :confused:

I've had a double take at the mpg over a long trip before but that was in the mid 40's.

(admittedly my car is a few ponies short of a 330

)

Your site has been removed because you have exceeded your bandwidth allowance.

Seriously what sort of crap ISP measures the bandwidth on a website on a DAILY basis?! Seriously WHAT, 250mb a day?!

So in one month if i move 400mb of data - hardly any - but 300 is on a single day, my entire webspace gets deleted.

Pointless thread is pointless.

ruffneck · 28 Apr 2010 at 21:18

Can i just say I wasnt on some sort of eco drive, there was lots of foot down action. I thought it was pretty impressive but obviously it isnt.

Nevermind

Get 55mpg out of it, then I'll be impressed
