Did nearly 300 round trip used 1/3 of a tank sitting at 65mph and its an auto.

I did 200 the previous day and 300 on Sunday, the best part was on getting home, not at all tired from the journey....this car constantly amazes me! I shall not talk about m.p.g as I did not hang about coming home and a nice Tourer followed me all the way as far as the Banbury exit of the M40...any ideas guys?.P.

365 miles door to door. Still have 1/4 tank left. I'm very happy with that. I haven't filled up yet but he car is stating I have 132 miles left.

I think that's pretty fantastic from a V6!

I know.

I was taking it easy and stuck to 70 all the way

. We had 1 stop and thats it.

I think it's all down to smooth acceleration and keeping the car serviced properly.

I expect the last 1/4 tank will drop quite quickly now I'm in town but on the motorway I always get great MPG.

filed it up today.

I managed 439 miles on a full tank and when I pulled into the petrol station the IPK informed me I had 28 miles of fuel left.

I'm VERY happy with that.
