Is there any point in having a Boxster if you're going to drive it that gently? ;-)

Gran Hermano

Anyone care to explain how I'd measure MGP ?:D

roughan

look at the number of litres you put in say
30 litres
divide it by 4.56 and that the amt of gallons you put in

30 /4.56 = 6.57 gallons

if you did 300 miles on this
300/ 6.57 = 45 Mpg

when i got it first i drove it mad but
and my da used to say i would have the bulb wore out for the petrol light !!!!!

Merc S320 LWB

around town anywhere from 8mpg to 17mpg (avg 17)

on a trip home from Rathoath yesterday got 35mpg most of the way.

You can choose to drive your car like an undertaker and save shedloads but where's the fun in that.

About 25 I'd say thankfully I do very little stop/start driving these days

I think he was trying to be sarcastic (note the "Big Grin" smiley) about the use of the term MGP instead of MPG, and was asking how he could measure MGP
