Thanks gents, was after something a bit cheaper.
I have seen one of those Audi s6 v10 engined estates for 11k so would go for that if I were to spend that.
Rather get a 2004/5 and save another 6k depreciation.

Thanks ... Top one is ok but really don't want a grey leather. Like the one at Sterling but a bit too much. I think I can find something for £5.5k ish
Not sure why I am so tight lately...

That twelve grand one is the 388bhp version , the other two are only 306bhp

If you look at the technical spec on the autotrader ad it suggests extra urban fuel economy is 33.6mpg, now I know there are lies, damn lies and motor manufacturer figures but I can get at best 32mpg from our E240 on a gentle motorway run, what would the real figure be?

 

[Howard]

You might get it if you were careful.

Remember that it is a big torquey engine , it's not going to be struggling like a 240 would do.

I can get 30+ from my 430 v8 if I drive sensibly

 

[Watchcame430]

I am with Howard ... I got similar in my 430. My SL might be a touch juicier but I am happy. Its a trade off and I love V8s.

 

[Feeble]

What makes the C43 so juicy then? Best I can manage is 21mpg and that's driving as sensibly as possible... Or have I got a problem somewhere?

 

[Howard]

Something wrong with that by the sound of things.

We are talking about motorway mpg yes ?

the time is coming to replace with something a little more interesting as an E240 will get you there but then again so could british rail

You were supposed to be quoting the Extra urban figure, not motorway cruising.

 

[Howard]

Lol sorry.

I thought extra urban was motorway ?

 

[Feeble]

A mix of motorway miles and city miles... Never had anything better than 21 mpg..

 

[Howard]

Ah , I stand corrected then !

Mine does 15/16 around town and 29/30 on the motorway.
