Very thirsty engine . you need to own a petrol station to own one of these, especially if you live in london
think this the main issueOriginally Posted by pinnacare
its nice the kick down must be wow lol all turbos are fuel eaters id say if u have a heavy rite foot ur looking at 15-20 mpg around town poss not even that
I get around 28 overall out of my 2.8T Elite HB but admittedly most of my miles these days are on motorways but when I lived in North London I averaged 26.9 for the first 50,000 of my cars life. The auto gearbox is one of the best i have ever driven, very responsive.
255hp helps with the responsiveness i expect
yes i thought that
I have a 3.2 V6 at the moment and looking at some figures the 2.8T is just very slightly better on fuel.....so wouldnt be a big issue......the tax IS! and will be on my current car in the not too distant future. We are however looking for a diesel to save a bit of cash but at the price its at...it just seems a very good buy!
driven diesel for 3-4 years far to cheap nowthink its ment to be in the cheaper tax braket i think a post says. 3.2's are beter on fuel mate has one and gets 26 mpg round town where as our omega 3.2's got 19

Unfortuntly it is a £435 a year band too, Anything before 20th march 06 (i think) is the old band, I know of a thames valley police 2.8 turbo special coming up soon and its on the old band,,
