Miles 4th Gear July 8, 2014 Share July 8, 2014 My home MSCP got E9. Want to view it? I have seen E34 on the road. In fact, Mockingbird sold off his E34 6 mths to 1 yr ago. If i have S$300k cash on hand, i would love to buy that E39 ///M5. It is not about the reliability of the car. It is about getting the right ppl to take care of it. I see a few E36 across the causeway. More than than E46. And plenty of E39 (to me, its the best design ever). E34 i do see but not often. E39///M5 V8 400bhp (only) with manual ... will be an all time favourite. Just like the E type and 300SL W194. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said I never see ... cos I stay in poor estate no one can afford to keep old E34. My estate also very poor. That unker has to convert his E9 to classic car. The hardest to see nowadays are E39 LCI. That's a gem for keep. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coolad 5th Gear July 8, 2014 Share July 8, 2014 what is LCI ? Actual terminology should be Life Cycle Impulse. Facelift is Japanese term for it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
inlinesix Supersonic July 8, 2014 Share July 8, 2014 so small? then have to keep going to petrol stn to pump.... That's for C180/200 based on the 1.6L. If u look at City cycle, it is still 500km for 1 full tank. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most small conti cars with 1.3-1.4 engines already are with 45-50L tank. Can 41L fuel tank give 500km mileage? So good FC? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can 41L fuel tank give 500km mileage? So good FC? That's based on data from Merc Germany for city cycle. Apparently, all model is 41L except C250 & C250 Diesel (which is 66L).

Even my first car, the small 1.3l fiat punto has a 47L fuel tank. I think I will have to run to the petrol kiosk once every 5 days if I get the new C class.

Damienic 5th Gear July 8, 2014 Share July 8, 2014 I'm doing about 80km/day. My computation basis: Will be pumping about 37-38L per visit to petrol station. Although fuel tank is 41km, I won't be using till the very last drop before pumping. I believe the FC for a C200 is at best 11km/L based on 70% highway and 30% urban driving (I'm normally sceptical about the official figures given by manufacturer which seems always inflated). So that gives me about 410km mileage before each pump and that's about 5 days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that gives me about 410km mileage before each pump and that's about 5 days. For you, best to avoid C180/200. To protect fuel pump it is best to pump when it drops to 34L (remaining 7L is reserves). This means that 3 days. my civic hybrid can give me 720km for 38litre... With the same 41L, diesel can go 820km on city cycle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alphard96 6th Gear July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 my civic hybrid can give me 720km for 38litre... Yours almost 19km/L, v good fuel consumption figures, congrats! Better than most big cc two wheel bikes. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
