well just after a 500 mile round trip to Dublin im my v6 c280 280 i'm delighted i got 31 mpg overall as driving was all motorway and city use. Actually more than happy.

Very good. That's nearly as good as the 31.7mpg I'm averaging overall in my V6 C350 petrol. On a 250 mile run up to Hull and back earlier this week without hanging around it returned over 37mpg. I'm more than happy too

Nearly as good as my old diesel does in general use.

I do have a light right foot to be honest but it was the first long run over 30 miles i had done since owning the car. Very happy

How did you get to Dublin in a car you sold twice

 

[tonyc280]

Hello Mr John Jones Jr. Well i nearly sold it more than twice hahh. as i said before i used to be undecided , now i'm not so sure. T.

Couldn't resist pulling your leg Tony. How was Dublin, do anything interesting?

But nowhere near as good as my bike. So what?

24.7 mpg is the best I've managed on my SL55.

How does the C280 perform on water? Leicestershire to Dublin?

Nice .. I was surprised the tatwagon did 26.4mpg over a tank of mainly mway driving last week

sorry 'l5foye' forgot to say i got the ferry from holyhead to dublin port.

I am disappointed now ! Thought you had maybe discovered a tunnel. Still 31 mpg is very good.
