3L engine only seems to be on the top of the range one and i hate leather seats

the 2.5 kicks out 140+ bhp enough for a demountable

Looked again as the 200 bhp beast is heavy on road tax

Can get a low mileage 10 yr old one for a price auto with tiptronic 170 bhp

Morning Rich,

I think we're all pretty much reporting similar MPG figures of around 21 - 25 MPG :(
Anything more & you can take it as a Bonus :)
