    Combined cycle 10L/100km for the 2 years that Ive owned it. Tracked on a spreadsheet.
    M44 run on 98RON.

    I must be heavy on the accelerator!

    98 M3, not a daily driver, mix of suburban commuting & hills/country running. Over the last 18 months, long term average (on the trip computer) is 9.9l/100km of 98RON - but I think that reads a little low, and reality is more like 10.5l/100km. Yesterday, I took a trip to the Barossa. The current tank was at 3/4, and fuel consumption was displaying 10.2l/100. By the end of the day, it was half a tank and average of 9.2l/100.

    Thursday / Friday I took a trip to Roxby Downs & back in a company Volkswagon Caddy tdi auto. Six hours each way, I reckon the M3 would've used less fuel than the diesel.

    Calculated it for some varied driving a few months ago. Average was about 9.2l/100km, mainly around town.

    overall average is 10.5, on the full length of the ringroad i can get 7.5 thats better than I could ever get in the old V6 Bombadoor!
    Using PULP I get about .5 to 1 L/100km better than e10
