You copied that off the official consumption figures, Captain Average!

Fair cop. Hate to be average so going to stick the boot in a little more.

Had Calais V wagon to review the other week averaged 18l/100 in city driving ave speed was around 20km/h, on the freeway it got down to the 9s I will say i did exercise my right foot a bit though.

This is close to my figures. Proper city driving (20-23kmh) wont yield any better than 18ish L/100Km.

My average speed is 30KMH if lucky....
Using almost around 18L /100k's

Got a redline wagon booked first week of June to review so will see if I can beat the fuel economy I got with the Calais V, my guess is I wont.

Reading all these reports, I'm regretting not getting a VF II.

I have a VF I Redline UTE.
I am a builder by trade.
I run RON91 with the occasional fuel treatment cannister.

My average is 16L/100km. My best is 13L/100km
A full tank covers about 480km.

16L average works out to about 430km / 70L
I heard fuel treatment stuff can do more harm then good? I remember back in my 20s using them on my VN and it suffered horribly

 

[CalaisNQ]
