    (new) Audi A6 Saloon 2.4-V6 petrol

    Drive like your nuts are on fire = 'Fuel economy!? WHAT A JOKE!!'
    Drive normaly = about 26MPG

    Mind you, my right foot is make of lead and I live in a valley in a VERY hilly area.

    Full 70litre fuel tank lasts around 340miles

    Dual Zone Climate Control always set to 20 degrees centigrade
    Radio/CD (MMI System in general) always on

    I don't know the Bonneville's Fuel economy. I never actually took the time to calculate the number of gallons I buy compared to the miles driven.

    Should be a lot like mine. The Buick, driven at an average of 85mph, gets like 20-23mpg
    Excuse me, I forgot you car is driven at 1milMPH because its the special AXB edition.

    No, that's having a car taken from you. "Lose" makes it sound as though he has misplaced it.


    And he did...


    You can't find the car, eh? This is why I have friends who don't drink...

    You'd better pray to God you don't 'lose' either of your next possible cars, because I will steal whatever it is. Do you hear me? I will find it and take it for my own!

    Oh yeah, anyone want to buy an '05 reg Audi A6? It's quite nice. Found it the other night. £10 and it's yours.
