same as krc at moment
Im the same sunil,fun and frugal with the SD. Not near what is written regarding official mpg,but new and still running in and still better mpg than the petrol Ps i top up every monday regardlessWell, in some ways I'm glad I got the SD despite the difference in official figures vs. the reality. In my situation if I'd gone for the S I'd have been filling up every 5 days rather than twice every three weeks!
long as its costing me no more than £20 per week to run,then i say its frugal ;-)I think yours and my definition of frugal are slightly different Dave, but I get what you mean.![]()
Not even 500 miles on her yet jeremey, i will start getting worried a few thousand miles in....plus that pic was local driving to next townBlimey I thought the diesel would be better. Quick I know but.my petrol Cooper is averaging 44 mixed driving and entertaining with naughty blasts ie 5000+ rpm to hear that fab warble and if I drive with care and saintly I'm getting 49. Uk mpg. That's not from the computerit is. 1 or 2 mpg more.optimistic. That's calculated fill to fill.
mine needs more miles than the 400 she's done so far,at mo engines tighter than my wallets opening ;-)Let the petrol vs diesel wars begin! See the attached photo from my petrol S. To be fair this was at constant speed on cruise control....![]()
WE don't have the pops and crackles Jeremy but we have that grunt sound,good enough for me ;-)Oh but the petrol engine sounds so good,thats why I bought it. Not interested really in economy, I don't the really care.for that I ride my Honda cg125. 85 mpg.thrashed to the limit(60mph max!!!) but it is interesting to see what they all do and t h e differences.
