General questions about C240 sport

if the engine isnt labouring it does. if you have to give it too much throttle sometimes you get better economy revving it higher but under less load in forth than less revs but having to put the foot down harder in fifth, say you were going up a hill for example.

hmmmmm... yes, the BMW 'slurp'ometer - can make for frightening reading when driving hard, even with an oil burner ! (a steady 70mpg when cruising along the motorway is nice to look at though !)

I'm sure MB used to fit this to certain older models ... SEC etc as well. I wonder who had it first !

Yes, my '97 R129 has an analogue MPG dial.
