I get 20 mpg if I drive it like a 240D taking an onramp. I get 20 mpg if I granny the thing. I get 20 mpg if I drive at 70 - 75 mph highway cruising. And, I get 20 mpg in stop and go city driving.
It's always the same, same, same. No matter how you cut it. I'm not complaining.
Just drive them like diesels. Run WOT whenever you can. They'll love you for it.  |
I have to clean out my M103 on a regular basis because my wife just loafs around town in it always....short trips at like 25-35mph.....I open it up when I drive it.  5k+!!
