2017 Nitrate Manual Redline
Ok thank you very much for all your replies. Just a couple of other questions. Do I need to be careful getting a white evoke as it may be an ex police vehicle? Also we currently have a 1.8 litre toyota corolla 2003 will it be a huge jump on fuel? We don't use every day. 2 days a week we probably drive 20kms a day and maybe one day a week we do a longer drive. It's not for work or anything.
Corolla - ~6-7L / 100
V6 3.0L - 9L / 100
V8 - 13L / 100

ymmv

my v8- 17L per 100 on 98
Snap with my V8 on 95.
And my SV6 only slightly lower consumption. But it gets used mostly around Sydney roads.

Average 12.1L per 100km on 98. I have probably way too much mechanical sympathy but that’s who I am.

Your right foot must hardly move!
But well done.
haha. well it depends on the sort of trips you do - mine is a mix of 60 zones, plenty of 80 zones and about 5-6 minutes on a freeway - about 30km each way. Right foot regularly extends to maximum travel i can assure you ;)
Short slow trips don't make for good economy

I get around 500k's up to 540k's on the highway doing about a 100 to 120k's a day and down to 300k's or less just pottering around town at around 60 to 65ltr's per tank , I don't play the ltr's/km's as it varies too much.
EDIT : But my car is charged with a mild cam
