Royboy66 Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Yup! Id say Hutch managed 50mpg! ( oil that is! ;D) Although my speedo reads over by 10mph,ish the odometer is bang on according to the sat nav! so, yeah We managed around 25mpg, which I think is about ok for a 2.5 gt6(3:63 diff, d type o/drive) and a heavy right foot ;)50mpg!?? well firstly,I'd like a few gallons of that 'stuff'! and secondly!, How the F*@k did he get that??, doesnt sound like he had a whole lot of fun driving it anyway!! I Also went to clm2006, and again managed around 25mpg! but it was around 100 smiles per gallon aswell! ;D ;D. Does he have a diesel fitted? but thinks its just loose tappets!! :)Roy.( still covered in hutchs's oil mist!!) 8) ( only joking mate! ;)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glaramaraman Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Is everyone confident that their odometre is accurate. My spitfire underreads by 15% and GT6 overreads by 20% - I know this as I can do accurate measured miles on rallys and configure my electronic Brantz - thus giving me some accurate local distances to calibrate against.Quoting MPG using an unreliable mileage is meaningless. Motorways have 100m posts & kilometre measurements. 8km = 5miles... so on a long run try measuring the accuracy of your odometre over 16KM - just try not to bug the lorries too much.

glaramaraman Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 "THEN" is spelt with an E . but then I was never one to worry too much about absolute accuracy... we English 'ave as much fun with your measurements as you do with our language. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
