happy economy

Post by shadrack » Sat Sep 12, 2015 3:21 pm

Just done a little road trip last week, 1150 miles total with a trip mpg at 34.8 (calculated not on obd) well happy with the result, mixture of motorway, b and a roads, its quite impressive i thought for a car of this nature and quite an improvement over what im used to running

That's ok but will it do 60mph in less than 5 secs and top 175mph?

I therefore raise you
