However, drive a 535d liken a demon and the only thing faster than the car is the fuel guage needle !!
Not that I'd ever drive fast of course .....see lower post 'speeding'

[/quote]Didn't Clarkson get it down to about 12mpg around the track and still praised that consumption
(I think the Evo FQ400 was about 4mpg...)

If you reset it while cruising in neutral at like 70mph, you'll be at 99 mpg for a little bit, doesnt go above that.
