Thats just a consumable to owning a car, like petrol. Can't really value a car on that. A car needs tax. And will do in 6/12 months time after you've taxed it
My commute is all fast flowing B roads, minimal traffic.
I set the C/C at 60-65mph for most of the 70 mile drive, and depending on traffic, not having to slow down etc.
i can average anything from 33 to 35+/-
In stop start it drops to under 30, they aren't good in standing traffic, but no...
My best is actually 412 miles, using the red too. Before getting worried and stopping at a station.
surely a hot hatch that can do that mileage to a tank is good.
M3's are overrated. They have huge repair bills. Everything seems to cost a £1000 on my friends every time it goes into BMW for a service, brakes, tyres etc.
and they have a common fault of the rear Chasis legs cracking on the early ones iirc?
Its a completely different design, smaller top mounts. The whole suspension won't fit. You have to specify 2010> when ordering if that's what yours are.
FYI they're not all interchangeable. Different years have different top mounts. The ones I know are the 200 from 2010 onwards have different revised suspension again
Lovely car! Welcome!
silvervision indicator bulbs and remove C L I O badge. Job done on the outside.
enjoy it! :)
I was a member of Corsasport before. Recognise your car.
I'll be doing a test and report back after the weekend. 500 miles trip to Oulton Park :)
but I already know it'll be good, I commute 70 miles one way, B roads. I'm always on 33+ and I'm always 60'ish +'
I'll agree that they are crap on stop start, and people who are doing those sort of commutes shouldn't expect good mpg on any car?
theyre good cars on a run. Fact
But some can't get over 26'ish mpg? I can see 34-35 sat at 70 on the motorway, and the same sort of mpg on B roads at 60'ish.
edit: reply to chips this is
I'm just saying, mines in my experience, and I've done many many miles in mine already.
the only other explanation is the cars mpg completely differs from one to another?
