corsa 1.7cdti and saab 9-3
Right been running the mercedes for a few weeks now with a variety of driving averaged 18mpg, personally i feel this is good.. just after some thoughts and suggestions.
 
I used to get mid 20's in my S430.
Close to thirty if I had Miss Daisy in the back.
 
my S600 mixed driving is 19 mpg mixed driving style conditions, seems abit low for s500 18 mpg.

An S430 I had only used to manage 13 - 14MPG (in Jersey), so lots of stop start and no long runs...........I would have loved 18 - 20mpg!

Not too bad mileage

I've had an S500 W220.075 for a few weeks now and can report the following:
Around town (i only have a 10 mile commute across town) - 19.5mpg
On the motorway with distronic active and 70mph - up to 30mpg

that's on regular fuel too , but i tend to drive like a granny, if I put the boot in, 13-15 seems about right

Cheers
 
I generally get about 16-17 in town with mine. Can get near 30 on the motorway.

8 cylinders need fed, remember that.
 
I get araound 16-19mpg round town, motorways 24-29mpg thats in my s430L, I thought the s500 would do more having the cylinder shut off
