Just back from a 1000 mile road trip around the South of England visiting various landmarks & attractions. Overall MPG for my 2010 plate Z4 SDrive30i Auto was 39.7mpg with a 100 mile stretch of motorway returning 46.9mpg traveling at 70+mph.
Pretty impressive figures for a 3 litre 6 pot I thought!
Great car, never sell it!
 
What buzylar said.
We want to see photos Stonehenge. Tintagel. The white cliffs of Dover. St Pauls Cathedral. Fat Matty's massage palour in Wardour Street, Soho.
Or it didn't happen! :lol:

Agreed it's a really great car and the fuel economy is very pleasant surprise for such a large engine. My 2009 sdrive30i averaged 40.3 mpg driving from London to southern Spain around 1400 miles and that's with being stuck in solid traffic around the Paris ring road for 2 hours! I believe it would have probably got to 43 to 45 mpg if it wasn't for that. To put it into perspective my 2016 118d average around 50 mpg on a round trip from Malaga to Lisbon.
 
Nice. But forget the MPG, where are the pics? 8) .
Don't forget, what might seem local and familiar to you, is probably exotic and unusual for us 'off-shore' forum folk :wink:
