<div class="bbWrapper">I should get a good idea of what mine is doing tomorrow as I have a 200 mile run to Center Parcs in Suffolk.<br /> Best I've ever seen is 26.2 on a 90mile run. Not too shabby for a 666bhp saloon.</div>

I do around 20K PA miles in this car.. it is amusing that those who store their cars in a garage and use them as a weekend treat think 18 mpg is either a badge of honour or something to be proud of.. does anyone think that this is silly.. I can get 7.1 mpg but it is not in any way legal in the UK and would see a (probable) 10 year ban...</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">With a w204 c63 at 18mpg you WOULD deserve a badge of honour <br /> My w205 c63 is around the 28-30mpg</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">2500 miles into AMG GTS ownership and I’m averaging 23mpg. Tried to take advantage of a run where a decent chunk was on a 60mph limited motorway, was averaging 27. Mostly I drive like Miss Daisy with the occasional play, but you can’t drive a fast car quickly on the roads and expect to maintain a licence.

Lots are advertised and prices as FSH but which have holes (in the SH) all over the place.
