    Did a similar trip in mine when I collected it. Cumbria to Bedfordshire - 45mpg average on the display. I was super surprised. I generally stick mine in eco on a motorway for the commute then back into comfort for normal roads as the eco mode throttle map is junk for stop start driving. Oh and mines a manual.

  • @m140i_james
    @m140i_james 2 года назад +1

    They are surprisingly economical. I took mine to the Ring last year and on the drive to for the Eurotunnel, the trip computer had it at 50.8mpg for a short time.
    Granted it never actually stayed that high and ended up at around 44mpg before blasting it a few times around the Ring, but I was well chuffed with that tbh.
    Keep the vids coming anyway man, always look forward to them.

Was still happy with that. Oh and a few overtakes stuck in there as well

    Eco mode would shift sooner and probably would make you more economical when accelerating due to the throttle mapping and shift points. In my car with the n63, eco mode also lets the coolant get much hotter (113C) before opening the thermostat, thus being more efficient.

  • @jeffabbott463

    52 mpg @ 50
    48 mpg @ 60

    I could get 52 mpg if I were to go 50-55mph; however, I would get pulled over for driving too slow. I usually go 65mph and get 47mpg

    As i understand it the manual its pretty uneconomical on a long run. I'm told in 6th cog its running at about 2.5 to 3 thousand revs...drinking it! I know you mentioned about whether it uses more juice in comfort or sport at 70mph...i've tried that out and if you're cruising along at 70 in comfort, check your fuel economy gauge wotsit...then change to sport and at the same speed to relative mpg is lower at the same speed...flick it back and it better despite the revs being the same and the speed being the same #baffled

  • @AtreidaeChibiko
    @AtreidaeChibiko 2 года назад

    Just throwing in here. With the passing of the Australian automotive industry, Cars like my Holden Commodore (Vauxhaul VXR over there) have shot up in price astronomically. Considering cars that were 40-60K AUD (25-40K pounds... aka "a fiver") are now commanding easily 60-100 to even 250K it just didn't make sense to keep buying a large Aussie car anymore.
    So I started looking for a smaller hot hatch to replace my 10 year old VE, looking at things like the Golf and the RS.. but one thing always got me. Front Wheel drive is no fun.
    Beemers are considered a luxury brand over here (starting at 60k for a base model) so they had never even entered my mind as a fun car, but after a friend recommended a 135 and a few of your videos later I ordered a second hand 140 sight unseen, sort by cheapest and blue, of the Internet (no my names not Moog! ha!). It turns up later this week and I'm sure I'm going to have a blast.
    PS: I've already ordered a blue start button.
