After modest 60 mph driving I get 620 (British) miles showing as my range on filling her up. What is the best you get?

On a long trip, about 95% highway driving, I can get something over 500 miles in my '06 530i.

NOWAY That's a lot of miles on 530i. Is it all down hills??

The max mileage on one tank of gas is 400 miles. The computer shows I have ZERO mile left.

Perhaps there is an extended tank option we are not considering!

I think around 500 +/- as I do mostly highway, I can regularly get 28.5-30.5 mpg, with my '06 525i....I am tickled pink with the gas mileage!
