Aye, definitely need a 2nd car when you've a thirsty v8 sat on the drive
Yer drive to work, I'm betting it gets nowhere near 18mpg

Have a well paying job, buy shares in BP or have the winning lottery ticket!!
Instructions unclear, third v8 bought
@Ceebl a third more economical car on the road would be the wise decision. I currently have both a 2.0ltr Diesel Passat and 3.0 Diesel A8 that I should get on the road for the next few months.
@Rigger since April my commute to work is literally three foot steps. I got a promotion in work and I am now reaping the rewards of it.
@pizza85 I wish my next car move is either an RS3 or RS6 but that will be later on next year.

Amazing machine. I've had a run in one before. Performance pack model. I love how when they're just sitting ticking over its almost like getting into a normal C Class. But when you blip the throttle, it can only be described as dirty and menacing. They really start to waken up approaching 100mph. That's the big cc's I guess.

Living the dream there, unfortunately I buy my own fuel so I’m slumming it in the flying fabia during the week as always!
I came from from Galway on little over a quarter of a tank in mine, but it's only a paltry 5.0 lol

I should be away to Donegal for a long weekend at the end of the month in mine, I may fill it before I leave and hope for the best
I understand that for sure but so far I’m loving the car enough that I’m not worrying about the amount of fuel going into it too much. I don’t do much for myself after I pay my bills and whatever the family needs, the odd bottle of whisky and a few tanks of fuel keeps me happy for the month.

To be fair my last weekend car was the Golf R, For all the miles I do at the weekend the difference from 20 to 30mpg is about £60 a month for me which is well worth the difference to get to drive about in a C63!
If it does a lot less than 20mpg on a spirited run I can live with that but I am getting 19-22mpg doing the normal family driving about stuff so far.
Long live the honeymoon though!!!

Those scenic roads, no traffic, possibly dry weather....
That's wishful thinking
