E30 Zone

hi all, i told my fiance the other day that the 320 was getting 325'd. she didnt mind but the only problem she had was the fuel consumption. could someone please put her straight? i told her the 325i engine will give me better mpg and more to a tank than the 320. she dosent belive me.please bare in mind that i hardly go over 60mph and she dosent see over 5,000 rpm!

"Your Finance, sorry, Fiancé, is right. You will see improved MPG with the 2.5l engine"

What are you averageing in your 320 at the moment?

How much do you get to a tank?

I've been driving a tight 65,000 mile 325 auto and getting better fuel economy than my 318is! (I rag the iS and the exhaust is shot, the auto is a lot more disciplined driving - I change gear at at least twice the revs in the iS).

I was pleasently surprised by the 2.5's fuel economy!

Excellent news! 32mpg after a 300bhp engine swap I can handle!

i get 250 - 270 miles per tank. hope the 325i engine will give me better than that.

I was driving like a Nun the other day and was getting 36mpg according to ther OBC in my 325i Cab...

My 325i touring (manual gearbox) gets 24mpg around town (gentle driving to keep licence clean), and 30mpg on the motorway if I stay under 80mph.
