I've never really bothered checking (because it's not that sort of car right?) but I've just had a pleasant surprise...

18.6 mpg!

Yes, that's with motorway and A road journeys but even so. From an 8.3 litre engine? Cool smile

My record on one tank was 26mpg coming back from Germany last year - steady 80mph for ~250 miles...

The day I even start to think about working out what my MPG is on the Viper will be the day I start thinking about potentially not owning one... Can't ever see either of those things happening... wink

best was 20 on a run up to the northern run..

But today a did a tank and got 14mpg A6 A1 A505 and town driving.. Good fun though but the 2006 Porsche Turbo i looked at in Hatfield was rather nice....
