I was hoping for rather more than 24mpg....oh well, all life's little luxuries have their price! Gonna be a bit of a shock after 32mpg average in the 525d. But atleast unleaded is cheaper at the pumps![/QUOTE]

Unfortunately though - you are going to want super unleaded - the higher RON the better. It does make the engine run quite a bit sweeter.

That means it's going to be the same as (or more) per litre than diesel.

But economy is NOT the point of these cars.

It's not the cost though - its the range that bugs me. I find myself running low and then looking out for a shell garage to get some 99 RON.
