Basicaly as the title says!!! im considering the 4.2 and just want some true mpg's from owners!!! many thanks!

If you hammer it, 8 mpg.
On the motorway at 80 in crusie control around 17.

Mixed driving you'll average around 15.

Remember petrol is 15% cheaper that diesel too. 2022 P440e AB

i dont care, there is no substitute for a V8, sounds so meaty when you drop it in to second going through a tunnel!

is it worth it for the extra performance over a diesel? also how many miles do you get out of a tank?

i filled up on BP ultima last night, cost me 97 quid, and on my tank it said 155 miles, i do a fair bit of city driving and i tend to get about 8 days driving out of it, thats not to say im in it constantly, i mean, i drive prob 15-20 miles around a day,

but im either flooring it, or nearly ticking over depends on how im feeling RR Sport supercharged 06

The TDV8 sounds pretty good too and will ave comfortably over 20mpg  Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award

15 mpg sounds like its roughly the same as my current (old) rr 4.6, if your worryed about fuel ecconomy, i'd suggest looking into an lpg conversion as its about half the cost of petrol, obviously theres the extra cost involved of getting it fitted (but it does boost your resale value a bit aswell) but that way you have the advantages of the v8 but cheapo gas when your just milling about

15mpg

I think so. More responsive, faster, sounds better,[size=18][color=violet] [/size]cheaper fuel..[/color].

But the TDv8 tuning boys will disagree.[/quote

Which bit lost you?
- The TDv8 tuning bit?

What I meant was that those that tune their diesel V8's say that it sounds as good as the petrol, and is faster with less fuel consumption.

My experience with the V8 was that it was for sure faster than the V6, but not as fast as the SC, nor as responsive. But it was a regular untuned V8 loan car. 2022 P440e AB

but then, if your gonna a v8 you might as well have a big v8, has anyone ever thought of putting a sc on the regular 4.4 though?

I'm taking a risk here...

if you have to consider mpg, then you're not ready for the SC!
