Damn.. I thought I was Cured!

So there I am, draging 40+MPG UK out my 318iS, enjoying the challenge of cutting my commuting costs..

So last night, I went out and bought a BMW e34 535i Sport

Its manual, and I got the average consumption up from 7.4mpg(UK) to 30.4mpg(UK) on the drive home

specs of the car are below.. needless to say a3.5 6pot aint gonna sip the fuel. may be a handy track weapon though as it Has LSD and sports suspension as standard..plus a manual gearbox

1988 BMW 535i SE E34 car technical specifications from Carfolio.com - 4 door 3.4 litre (3430 cc) Inline 6 213.9 PS, 5 speed manual
