mpg for Z4 M 3.2
Hi, just wonderd what mpg you are getting as i'm only getting about 17/20 mpg and not driving very hard. I have owned five E46 m3's in the past years and always got a good mpg out of them, so its going to BMW tomorrow .

Re: mpg for Z4 M 3.2
These mpg figures are interesting I have been thinking about getting a Z4M and am worried I will get fed up with the worse fuel economy. However these figures are not too bad seeing as I get 29mpg with my 2.5 (mind you I don't drive economically ). I was thinking about a 370Z but seems everyone gets about 17-20mpg mixed driving which i could not stomache.

BMW said no fault found and charged £62 but now the car mpg is better and a flat spot on pulling away has now gone . Quite happy

Re: mpg for Z4 M 3.2
Mine has a good mix of motoway and short trips and last 2500 miles has averaged 25.7mpg on 99RON fuel and I reckon I would put that as a realistic long term mpg.

Re: mpg for Z4 M 3.2
Are these real world mpg or from the Dash?
I'm getting sub 25 in a 1.8T TT at the mo. I don't have the lightest foot but struggle to see me getting close to this with another 1.5l capacity.

Re: mpg for Z4 M 3.2
My figures based on mileage vs amount I fill up with quite closely matches the OBC figures.Hark wrote:Are these real world mpg or from the Dash?
For example I can put 50 litres in to brim it and then get 300 miles before brimming it with another 50 litres - which in my calculation means 300 miles on 11 gallons, or about 27mpg.
I think the least I've ever gotten out of a tank (although it still showed 25 miles to empty) was 180 miles, and the most was 340 (with 20 miles to empty).
