Just had this years MOT done on the E55. Passed with a couple of advisories I knew about.
2 rear tyres close to the legal limit (3mm)
front discs and pads need replacement soon.
Again, I wondered about the lack of secondary cats and resonator but neither even mentioned:bannana:

On collection I don't think I've ever seen the MPG ever showing so low. It was only ticking over for about 15 minutes whilst coming up to temperature for the emissions check:eek:.

4mpg.
That's c70 miles to the tank - what's the problem Rog? :dk::D.
 
If you idle the car long enough, you'll empty the tank without moving a single inch. I wonder what mpg that would produce, and how would a Merc display it?
 
I've had 9 mpg when showing my mates the acceleration with 3 up.

No resonator would never fail an MOT.

Not sure but a VW would be circa 50mpg and sub 99g/km CO2 I reckon......
