My Ride: '04 530d Executive, all options except sunroof and comfort seats ECU remapped by ZipTuning to 260+bhp.
Default

Best i got on 60 liters (after filling up, it was about 60 liters) is 840km/s (1l:14km) which is 33mpg.
Average is about 1:12 which is about 28mpg.

This is all based on actual odometer -> tank fillups, not OBC readings.
Best i got on the OBC was about 1:17 after 250km/s driving (cruisecontrol at 120) which is 40mpg. Beat that Prius
Too bad i went much faster after that (drove into Germany), so my average consumption went up QUICK.

I haven't done any highway driving yet. Although it's been getting warmer and I'm itching to feel the twins under the hood!
