R53 MCS - fuel economy round town and RFL?
Discussion
2 laps of the Ring worked out at practically 1/3 of a tank of fuel. So driven very hard, it's worse than my Range Rover Classic.
I don't do any commuting mileage in mine, so when it gets driven it gets driven fairly hard. 17-20mpg is the norm during B-Road driving, stop start in town and reasonably sensible driving will yield 22-24mpg.
These figures above are based on having a 15% pulley installed, seems to make a 3mpg differece pretty much no matter how you drive.

I am in the minority to here, I've covered 2.5k miles in mine in the last 6 months, this has mostly be covered on M roads/A406 and I'm seeing an indicated 37.6mpg using Shell Nitro. I did a fill to fill test and the reality was closer to 33mpg, still fairly good.
RFL is £295, not ideal!
I heartedly recommend the R53 myself.
