Car:2012 330d
Mods: Dtuk tuning kit
Odometer: 30k
How you drive: FWY to work (6am

), normal inner suburbs driving
Consumption: The average since ive had the car is 8.1l/100km (current tank - 7.6l/100km)

As a funny one, got in my old mans F30 335 the other day (2012). Every time i drive it he says he's trying to make the tires last to 70k (...like i would be irresponsible in the car and wear them out?! never

). Almost died when i saw his average was like 10.1l/100km!!!

Think i should install a JB4 on it whilst he isn't home one day?

My car has never been in the 10.0's!

Car: 2006 E90 325i 6AT
Mods: Only AFE air-pod filter atm, got a long list of mods for this car though

Odometer: 134k
How you drive: Mostly city driving (I live in inner eastern suburbs)
Consumption: 9.9L/100km (Only use BP 98 Unleaded, nothing else)

Do you guys think the equivalent LCI E9X cars with Efficient Dynamics and all these new technologies like brake energy regeneration and electric power steering.. etc. have significantly lower consumption than the pre-lci cars?

I drove my cousin's 2011 325i with electric power steering and the steering felt garbage.. It lacked the heavy meaty feeling of the hydraulic power steering system my car has. I'd rather my car consume an extra 1-2L/100km and have proper hydraulic power steering

Good post, should add average speed.
