Hi everyone, just wondering what your fuel consumption is like....
please use either MPG or km/litre as unit
remember to mention what displacement is your engine too!
me: 8.25km/l or 19.3 mpg
2.5 litre, 30% highway, 70% city

With about 50% highway driving I get about 22-23 on average. I drive pretty hard when not in cruise control though.

On long trips I get around 27-28 mpg. Sometimes as high as 30 mpg. In town around 21 mpg.
95 325i manual.

In other words, same here, more or less.
'95 318i, 192k miles, 5spd.
On the highway with cruise @ 85mph in 5th, it averages about 28-29(!!), guesstimated from the trip meter always showing ~375mi just before I dump 12-13 gallons in.

For my mostly highway commutes I get about 25 MPG.
I drive a vert which I suspect would have slightly lower MPG due to the aerodynamics.

11.6 km/l or 27 U.S. mpg since new with a 1.9L M44 engine. The numbers would be better were it not for the Autobahn. :rolleyes:

About 21-22 mpg around town. 28-30 mpg on the highway. I reset the second consumption guage on the OBC when I bought it, and haven't touched it since... as of last night, I've averaged 25.2 since then.
Believe it or not, but I seem to get the best hwy mileage with the top down! :thumbup:

When I was watching my mileage I was getting 8.8km/l city running (Christchurch NZ), and about 15km/l open road.
323i auto.

With 50/50 highway/city, I get 22.X MPG. On the highway alone, between 55 and 70 I get ~27.X MPG. Not bad for a 14 year old car with 182k.
