Before I start - I know you don't buy a 5.7 V8 with economy in mind....

...however last weekend I did a run from Surrey to Kielder & back via various places, took my mates out for several runs through the scottish borders and the trip computer averaged 26.9 mpg (808 miles/30gal) which I think is amazing, it sits at 28.5 mpg on the m-way and obviously plummets when you have fun but that's not bad is it ?

My old 2 litre Impreza was lucky to get anywhere near that figure on the m-way alone, and the engine was nearly 3x smaller - hows that work then?

What do you guys average (and yeah I can get it under 3mpg if I try)

Jagsy - you know where ths is...

Pheasant pub is 100 yds from my house and is now sporting a nice pair of black stripes up the hill after I took the proprietor for a spin.
