M3 MPG

[meatspin]

I've got a 3.0 M3, get about 32mpg on the motorway at 70mph. In town I get about 14-20mpg. I think the consumption is almost identical to the 3.2.

I have had 4 M3s and driving in London has always been around the 17-18mpg (210-220 miles for a full tank). When you are stuck in traffic you are not going to get better than that. Achieving 20+mpg in town driving is optimistic I would say.

I'll agree with that, around London with some rush hour traffic thrown in for good measure I get a rather optimistic OBC reading of 19.6mpg. 30mpg at best on the run.
