    M140i (& other x40i’s) worth a mention, consistently hitting 45mpg on motorway runs. B58 + ZF8 gearbox is such a good combo!

      I was so amazed with my 140's mpg. My current RS3 will just about get 32-34 on the motorway but it sits at 2.1k rpm at 70 so the turbo is spinning away adding to fuel consumption. It's just meant to go. Different machine and purpose entirely as RS cars are not built for mpg in mind at all, but on a roll the RS3 wouldn't ditch the 140i that significantly! Amazing cars, both of them. Props to BMW!

      @@peanusbenis5631 To be fair (and I owned an M140i for 4 years, tuned to 455bhp/634nm), it was Toyoto who helped BMW develop the B58, and probably why it is so good.
      Mine even tuned, regularly hit 42-43 mpg.

    • @ApothecaryTerry
      @ApothecaryTerry 20 дней назад

      I reckon the Fiesta is being saved for the £5k video and the 308 is kind of covered by the RCZ R, although they are reasonably different in a few ways (enough that I have a 308 sitting outside and not an RCZ!).

    Great video, but since you are talking about mpg, could you add for each vehicle the average mpg that the vehicle has?
    I think that you are doing a great job, but I thought that might improve the video a bit.

    That gen of GS is still my benchmark for cars at any price, it's only the lack of self-driving tech that's keeping it off my next shortlist. My real economy was high 30s average, although it'd do mid-40s if you do more long journeys since I had a short commute when I owned it, driven gently it's an easy 50mpg+ in any road/traffic conditions (or

    Once again you've missed off the Peugeot 308 GTi 270 BHP 1200KG and 0-62 in 6 seconds and MPG is (on my 2018) 41 MPG average, plus only 700 left on UK roads, so a future classic

    • @ApothecaryTerry
      @ApothecaryTerry 20 дней назад +2

      Doubt it's a future classic, too much stigma/bias around the Prince engine. Also the RCZ kind of covers it. That said, that stigma/bias is based mostly on misinformation and there are 3 Golfs on the list...
      Interestingly, as a fellow 308 GTi owner, my average MPG is exactly the same as yours! Once I get my service next Friday I'm hoping to get JB to review mine, then he'll stick it in a few lists, hopefully for positive reasons 🤣

      I test drove an M4 last year and I reckon they can be more economical than that - I was seeing mid-40s at cruising speeds, so I reckon low 40s on a run and at least high 20s average is very plausible.

    I can tell you for a fact you will not get 50mpg out of 435d unless you live next to a motorway and do 50 miles a day each way on it. Regular driving you should get 40+ which considering the performance is amazing, and the egr was a recall so no worries there
