It's Not A Mini

[28G's]

I went out to buy a mini and came home with a 2000 Altezza AS200. I was seduced by the colour (mica blue) the spoiler, the body kit, the beams engine, THE SPEED..........OK I'm calm again. I love my new car, but I never considered fuel economy or lack of it. Could someone break it to me gently how many kms/lt or miles to the gallon I can expect. Its a V6 ( I suppose you knew that)

Welcome to the club, its a Inline 6, fuel economy is not very good for a 2 litre...but compare to the IS300 3.0 Inline is decent, depends where you are, your tank should last around 450km around town....

$30 worth of premium gets me around 260 km-could prob do better but my foot can be a tad heavy at times!(reserve light just on solid at this point)

Aw, had to re-register :(

My car is nowhere near as econimical is my previous car, Subaru 2.2 ltr.

Around town driving I'm getting about 400Km for 50 Litres.

But I don't think I'm driving as econimically as I used to either.... :P
