Now here is a daft question. How do you see the instant mpg on the trip computer? I only seem to have avarage...Please...
Central London pottering about I'm lucky to get much more than 9 mpg!
Nick.
How much agro does dropping the front propshaft give after taking it off,
I have done a fair bit of work to my 4.6 to improve the economy/performance it averages between 16 with a lead foot to 26 on a run.
4.6; 14-16 on local roads, 22 on a run. Nice to read about other experiences. Was tempted to go for 2.5DSE but I'm glad I didn't. With a tight recon engine and a new full exhaust system the sound is worth the price, especially booting it, it's more like an F1 car sound!! But I have to admit, at low speed it just does not rumble as nice as my old 1978 3.5 with a Janspeed on. When passing under a bridge that thing could shake the mortar out of the bricks
Have recently bought a cheap smaller car for zipping to and from work, which does about 31mpg, thus halving the fuel bill for a start. A Mk3 Golf for 600 quid and it does the job, but although it's only a couple of years older that the RR it's quite rusty (none on RR) and the gearbox is on its way out....
I don't think the RR likes being parked next to it, you can just tell
Each to there own...Or whatever turn you on?
I have a small car to go to work and save the V8 for the nice days. And would not swap it for a diesel regardless of the "economy"...
