Hi guys
My previous car was a JEEP Wrangler and it did about 11 - 12 MPG around town and 15 - 17 MPG when I drove to london or manchester on business, but if i were to buy an m5 would I get better MPG and how have you found driving it aroud town and on the motorway, what MPG do you get and how often do you top up
Thnx
PS. my foot is made out of lead

If you drive with a lead foot in the UK then you won't keep your licence long!

I do just about 350Km on a full tank on my M6. I do between 90 - 120Km/h most of the time, but once in a while let it rip when I feel its safe (from cops and other hazards)

I'm sure Alex can squeeze out even 3.5km/l if he tries hard enough
He is just trying to scare you.
