Now I know we don't buy these cars to bother too much about MPG but .....
I went on a 90 mile drive (each way) at the weekend to a theme park and was lead car of a convoy of two.
Family member was following us behind and I told them to follow me as they did not know the way or have sat nav. I also took it steady and obeyed all of the speed limits (as always of course).
We left fairly early in the morning and traffic was light and free flowing and going steady I was not accelerating at my usual "RS" pace shall we say.
Anyway ... to my astonishment, I checked the mpg and saw I was achieving 35 mpg, then 36, then 37, then 38, then 39 ! Got all the way up to 39.8 mpg ... although I really wanted to get into the 40's lol
I dodn't set out to get amazing mpg, I just found it interesting when I did check it.
Now come on Guys that is impressive from a car which is supercar quick
Anyone ever got into the 40's ?
