Got 30mpg in my 99 E430

Just returned from a long weekend in Montreal. Filled up just as we were getting on the highway. It's about 330 miles from Toronto to Montreal, mostly flat and traffic is not too bad once you're out of the city. Had the cruise on about 70 most of the way up and the same on the way back today. Didn't make it all the way there and back on a single tank, but here are my stats for the fill up on the way back.

Distance between fill ups 879.7km - 546.6 miles
Fuel consumed - 69 Litres - 18.2 gallons

Comsumption 9.2l/100km or 30mpg.

I thought that was pretty decent for a 9 year old car with a "thirsty V8" in it.

I know this doesn't compare well with the diesel or Smart car crowd, but I was pleased with it.
