My Ride: Civic type R
Default Civic to BMW

Howz it going guys , been having a look on this forum for quite a while now and think its about time to make an account. Also I like fact that most of the topics are not just a d**k swinging contest like some other car forums.

Just looking for some advice really, at the moment I have a honda civic type R but looking to get a 530-535D due to being a classy car and having a very decent power output without the boy racer looks.
At the moment i do just over 400 motorway miles a week , (london-devon) although I'm leaving my job so that will change hugely.
Can anyone give me a realistic MPG roughly (75-85mph) on the motorway , and also how much they are to fill up from empty , just so I can get a rough idea in my head.
Basically what I'm after is some reassurance , as I can sometimes be quite impulsive

And No I haven't test drove either yet , thats the next road I will be going down ( no pun intended)
Anyway thanks for any feedback as it will be much apperacited.
Cheers
Steve

which chassis type R do you have? I'm pretty certain I'd club a baby seal for an EK9 type R.

good luck with the car search!
