Im sure this has been done a hundred times before but,
Only had the car a few days and the last two i have been at work, so used this runs to find a average mpg, start and finish is out of rush hour so no traffic issues and the run is 14 miles with a good mix of bit of in town with no hold ups...
As I peruse for my next 4x4, of the 'safe' option choices, I'm finding it quite interesting that of the models/marques I'm looking at there are quite big differences between the manufacturers mpg figures vs bhp.
Those I've been looking at are;
Mercedes ML 320 3.0 V6 CDI: 224 bhp &...

I know that manufacturers claim all sorts of outlandish MPG figures and under the right conditions some people are able to get pretty close to them. However, almost every vehicle I've checked on recently gets somewhere in the 30's range over the long term average. A much lower figure than I...
Hi. Ive recently bought a W210 E200 petrol. Someone told me I can have it tuned to be more fuel efficient. Does anyone know if this is true? Thanks for your help! :-)
My C220CDI is 4 months old and approaching 5000 miles, the MPG figures on the computer are getting worse. My commute is a 20 mile mix of twisty country road, urban stop start and a 4 mile dual carriage way. In July / august with about 1500 miles the computer was showing 40 / 41 mpg from start...
Hi guys.

Quite pleased with this really. Seems to be about the norm now - in fact has increased a little over the last couple of months. I guess it's because the engine is loosening up. At 5700 miles now.
