Wow. I run my 190 on lpg and get 250 miles on £39 gas. And I drive my car hard. Lpg pays for it self in no time. I would buy this car in a heartbeat but cant persuade the missus to get rid of the mitsubishi

Please remember it's a ten year old 2.5 v6 auto
I put £20 in and get roughly 75-80miles out of it.

I have a 2.5 V6 auto that is currently averaging 23.2 MPG, I can get it down to 18MPG if I try.
I don't think your MPG is unreasonable given the cold weather.

PS. SWMBO drives the diesel tourer, if I wanted economy, I'd drive the diesel.
That averages about 38 MPG in the cold weather.
I still drive the petrol out of preference though.

I'm guessing the Cougar was a standard 2.5 xpack to start with and you've added the Roush kit and dropped in a ST duratec in place of the standard Duratec engine?

I know they made around 200 in the states, but didn't think Roush made it over to the UK?

Stu, your ZT-T is a steal. If my mrs wasn't afraid of big cars. She'd have it. Her Clio is on its last legs.

Tris.

Yep your right full Roush kit including the exhausts
And it was a brand new st200 engine off a pallet and most of the other SVT parts direct from the states ... All put together and producing more hp than the original Roush units .
If I recall 13 Roush kits made it in to Europe and I have had 2 ....
Mine was one of the originals and the 2nd I could have sold 100 times over
