Fellas - your figures are very hard to believe to be honest. I've had a fair few and have NEVER got any more than 30. Now I don't drive like a granny, but at the same time, most of my journey to and from work is about 80% motorway at 75.

Just done a very steady brim to brim and managed 29.

It's called road trip. Can store a lot in it like services and mots etc but haven't bothered to set that up.

On a decent run where I'm not fussed about going too quickly mine would do mid 30's only ever once had it go to nearly 40 but I nearly fell asleep as was sooooo boring.
Around town according to the fuelly thing I get between 23/28 as a usual reading and it depends if I've been drivin more or the mrs.
Like I say though, on a run it will knock 36 on the app.
Still I never will expect it to be great on fuel, especially with the mods added as it just makes you want to hear that V6 growl.

Oh yeah! Got to add, the 40MPG was before the ITG and the decat!
But even so the mpg hasn't fluctuated all that much.

The dip before the 40 mpg was me in a hurry to go 150miles to my mrs's parents house one evening before the 230 mile trip to Norwich from Warrington to see her the next day.

makes the 350 bhp 700nm torque BMW 335D look great tbh. I can pull 640 miles a tank to 60 litres if I am good that includes a 30 mile flat out trip to NL at 1...... mph

Incidentally I found 120 mph is actually only 2600 rpm on the autobahn
