That has an english registration! You must live over here then?!

Do you drive it back to Poland? - I imagine the ride must be great!

As I wrote on my first post - I'm from Daventry in Northamptonshire :) I did this journey few times so far in this car. Fuel consumption was around 20mpg with average speed at 95mph on the motorways.

Ouch! That is very expensive!

I can get higher MPG than that in my 2.5.. although I don't drive as fast as that. My max speed on motorways is 70mph but I often cruise at 60 to save fuel (if i reset the trip computer i can see the fuel consumption in real-time and it really does make a huge difference).

I did something like 250 miles in one with £40 of petrol and still had plenty left over at the other end.. thats about 1/2 a tank I think maybe slightly less so they can be economical (sometimes). It must be said though, I love going up hills :D

Lowest I can get is 29mpg driving 60mph.

Thats about the same as the 2.5! I can get about 33MPG if I hold it steady doing 60 (though the road needs to be flat / down hill).

I did once manage 36MPG but it didn't last long - 2 or 3 miles ;)

thats the biggest issue on these tanks, the fuel. Costs over 100 quid to fill the tank and its gone in less than a week for me.

I average about 25 ish mpg

Looks like a nice clean and tidy example. Very nice! I like your alloys too - best I've seen on a safrane in a while!
