Won't ever have one of those - I've got an E86. :rofl:
 
About 180 with mostly urban driving.longer drives regularly see 300 miles.

Record is 380 on a non stop trip up to Lake District.

Z4 35I.

My 35iS is telling me around 300 to the tank with me chickening out at 16 miles left this week. Average of 25 mpg over last 3k miles

My 28i used to get around 360 per tank with an average of 30mpg over 23k miles

It's not that I hate the greater fuel usage more the lack of miles between fill ups. Would be better with a slightly larger tank on the 35iS so I didn't have to see the fuel pump quite so often.

I don't regret the extra OOmph under the pedal though ;-)

And oddly my sig says only 20mpg for the 35is yet online says 25.1 for some reason.

I think you have it set to USA Gallon which is smaller than UK Gallon.


Just checked and it's not but now it's looking like it fixed itself. Nice long trip down the M6 started to show about 360 to the tank but I soon got that back down the following day with a bit of right foot application.

Yesterday's fill-up was best ever at 27mpg :rofl:
 
Using as daily driver to and from work, on B roads with lots of braking and accelerating, I still average 30-31mpg, which is about 350 miles a tank I think.
The worst I have had is 27mpg to a tank.
My e85 2ltr, only need 32-34mpg. Plus my 57plate tdci focus, only did 38 on the same journey.
On a trip to my sisters, m25 etc, at about 75mph, I can hit 40's mpg wise..
For the fun, and speed, I can't complain.
 
35is. Messing about, some shopping, more messing about in SPORT, on A, B & M roads, some at n+30 or 40, but no SPORT + (well, I've only had it a week and the roads have been wet & greasy) ... 31.4 on the clock.

Actually, you're right.

But, having spent 5 years in a 320bhp AWD Porsche 996.2 C4 on excellent Michelins PS2s, I'm feeling my way in the 340bhp RWD 35is on RFTs.
