I won't deny that v8's are much more fun.
When I owned my 300se I averaged 20 mpg, seeing as high as 22, and low of about 17. You should bring your m103 over sometime so I can get it to run right for you.

These numbers sound right to me. The 3L m103 in my 190E was getting me 24-25 mpg on the turnpike doing 70-75.
The 420SEL does 20mpg at 70-75mph.
I drove the 560SEL home from NYC and it averaged about 21-22 on the freeway.
