    the VK black 3.3L seems to be notorious for poor fuel economy, even the EFI engine was a thirsty beast. Not sure why as they weren't that different to a blue.
    Although having said that, the stock standard blue 3.3L auto in my previous VH used to only get around 450-500 km to a tank on the highway & it was a fairly healthy engine (power wise) - I'm getting around 600kms to tank with my EFI 5L!

    If is a vk it shouldn't be a red 202. Are you sure its not an EFI 202? The red rocker cover on them tends to throw a lot of people off.
