JReg (1991) E36 BMW 316i Fuel Consumption

Posted on 2004-08-07 :: 204 Words :: Tags: Me

I took the BMW on its first long run today, 2 sessions of 1 hour and was impressed at the fuel milage being shown on the MPG meter on the dashboard.

I have decided to keep a record of fuel milage for every fill up to give others thinking of picking up one of these cars some food for thought. It will be a while before the table below begins to really mean anything though, so give it a few months.
