    Default This is BAD fuel consumption

    A 27-litre V12 Rolls-Royce engine with 485kws, draging around 52,000kgs.
    It uses an bank account lowering 600litres/100kms. an that's not a typo there

    Can't find any torque figures but it's a Rolls-Royce (Meteor) and old scool HP is 650:cool2:

    P.S it's an Centurion tank.
