Scoob is coming up to 3 years old, so working out petrol costs. Assuming my Scoob does 30 mpg average and SUL costs 77.9 ppl or 71.9 ppl for UL, then if I move to a 330d assuming I get 40mpg from that then I save between £150-£207 THOUSAND pounds over the 60k miles I will expect to do.

GULP!!! Leaves plenty of money for a Caterham/Westfield though

Yeah, but a diesel is too sensible.

Sorry gregh, that makes no sense. You say you'll save £207,000?

I think you're talking ****e, or not explaining yourself very coherently!

 

Have a look in today's Sun at the Peugot Ace - gullwing doors, coupe - gorgeous

Oh 0-60 in 6s & 143mph!

Not too bad for a diesel!

 

Mate, you are using 1500 gallons over 60,000 miles @ 40 mpg and 2000 gallons @ 30 mpg = 500 gallons more.

Assume 1 gallon = 4.5 litres, then you are using 2,250 litres more.

At current prices this amounts to appx £1,600.

Your calculations are screwed

 

ah! slight error in decimal points

 

Looks like some one put to many 00000 in the calculator

Greg,

For what period of time were you convinced you'd save £217,000 on a year's worth of petrol? Not more than 5 seconds, surely??!!

 

jetlag is my only excuse

 

I wish i could get 30 mpg only manage 22mpg ( if i coast down hill maybe just maybe!!)
