The old “what’s it do to gallon “

[Rugslasher]

so had the rs4 two weeks today & had quite a few people asking about mpg never been interested tbh as didn’t buy it for economy anyways we had a nip to Scarborough for day on Wednesday & really impressed with mpg , only steady run with the odd spirited driving & around 90 miles each way so set off with trip showing 210 miles & arrived home with 110 miles left , a what a nice place to be on a long run , miles of smiles

In answer to your question 'the old whats it do to the gallon' -

Not anywhere near what the manufacturer will say it will do ...

Was never interested in mpg myself,but it’s the first thing everyone asks so thought I’d take note on a long run & quite chuffed

Was speaking to a salesman at Portsmouth Audi a few weeks back about S / RS cars . Told me how he sold an RS4 a couple of days previous . Took a bloke for a test drive , said bloke floored it to the end of the road and says "I'll take it" . Hadn't even discussed price at that point !

That RS4 must be a special best .

My answer is always "I don't care for such things".

Think it just shows what some people care about in cars, get an indicated 18mpg on my latest petrol car which I really couldn't care less about unless someone can wave a wand and make it so that big engine and/or turbo cars with four wheel drive suddenly get really good mpg.

Bit similar to when people ask why I fill up with premium, theirs a car for everyone and I get that people have different wants and needs with cars nothing wrong with that just don't tell us what we want.

Had similar thing with my old evo 10 , “how fast does it go” or “I bet that’s thirsty “ I’ve always wanted the RS4 purely for the noise & anything else is just a bonus

Managed an exceptionally good 36 mpg in the SQ5 (newish petrol version) yesterday over about 100 miles using Shell V Power which def returns better MPG.

Often see people argue the merits of using V-Power and similar. We run our A3 S-line 2.0 TDI on V-Power diesel.......
MPG better
Performance better
Soot deposits at exhaust , near non existent .

Speaks for itself .

I’m using momentum 99 at Tesco mainly, used this in my evo 10 for 5 years with no complaints

My RS3 was about 26mpg, the RS4 was about 22mpg and current steed is under 20! Roll on the electric age

When people ask me about miles per gallon I tell them I am really interested in smiles per gallon.

Yeah it’s not something I was worried about but seems to be the first thing everyone asks

17.4 in my RS5. Worth it.

Never been asked any questions about it just get loads of compliments.

A4 3.0 tdi 2014 in 30 miles drive on a12 48 mpg my best, 44 mpg usualy also for longer drives. ~35 mpg if I'm speeding and on paper says 49 mpg average.
I had to consider mpg to my equation due mileage I do and money... That's why I choose also newer model due lower emission = lower tax and better economy and 245 hp power....
Some ppl ask for consumption, surprised with numbers but mostly I'm asked how good women magnet it is

If one buys any sort of high performance car , wether it be avant, saloon , hatch etc fuel consumption is the last thing to be concerned about, performance and fuel economy just don't go together , well not in my book .

I’ve just parted company with my c5 corvette which weighs roughly 1200kg, 6 sp manual.
This has the legendary 5.7 ltr ls1 lump up front = 350 bhp
I was always bring asked what does it do to the gallon?
My answer was always,” depends on how much fun I’m having “

Around the doors 13-15 mpg, on run 23mpg, loads of fun= 9mpg but what a noise it makes and the smile says it all.

Don't know don't care!

Now in a 15 plate S4 but sold my Maserati Gransport to buy it, Ferrari derived 4.2 V8 (oh the noise), flappy paddles operating a robotised manual box etc, fantastic car but I just couldn't get comfortable (back injury).
If it needed fuel I put it in and didn't worry about the mpg.

Oh and I never used the upgraded stereo once, the only music I wanted was the V8 and the valved exhaust in sport mode!

 

[Rugslasher]

Yep it’s strange that it’s the first thing they say even after I’ve spent a full day with the polish out
