Town drivers (London)

[dazzpowder]

Hi,

What's the average mpg return for those who use their car in town?

[tombs]

14 mpg

[dazzpowder]

Ouch! it's just starting to dawn on me the cost of running this beast. Would the mpg improve by a couple of mile if chipped?

[Fen]

Not in my experience.

[GardinerG]

I suppose we could always go for an LPG conversion...
(sorry, I'm just being silly!)

I agree with Fen, if you chip it you will want to use it - IMHO.

[dazzpowder]

Probably true and also the cost of chipping would no doubt take years to pay for in any savings made - but then the fun would be priceless

Hire a tanker, drive to mainland europe, fill the tanker, drive back and stick it at the top of the drive for your own personal supply for a year at a discount price.

Like a booze crooze with a difference, with much better savings.

Would be great if you could do it.

Dont think of the RS6 in terms of pence per mile, think of it as pence per smile!

[GardinerG]

Or grins per mile...

Use a scooter around town - speedbumps, congestion, congestion charge, parking during the week, and rip away at the weekend to get away from London. Combined mileage? About 45 MPG.

Damn right, i use a Pegasso 650 Trail.
