we have a large quantity of these in our company ( v8 petrol 100+ series cruisers )


It really does depend on how you drive them..

we do lots of high way mileage and found that if your nice 12.5- 14 on average..on the high way.

If your keen to get from a to b double it ! 28k /100

round town 20-23/100

towing / mud / sandwork go as high as 37-39 / 100

cheers
