I just got back from a three week trip of 1678 miles all over Northern California in my 06 XK8 Victory Convertible. Speeds ranged form over two hours in LA traffic to over the century mark. The car averaged 25.3 mpg, including a week in Lake Tahoe and a week in Clear Lake with allot of mountain driving.

 

i average 16 in the city

 

Its kinda hard to drive aggressively in Redondo Beach but it sure is fun to get the car out in the mountains. What a sweet machine.

 

20.5 (Indicated) Miles per U.S. Gallon using Crappy 10% Ethanol Gas.

 

18 commuting stop start to work
25 on motorway at steady(is) 70 mph

 

something I have never looked into but I am going on a 400mile round trip in two weeks time I will see how she goes on the v plus unleded

 

On a recent 320 mile trip my '97 XK8 also got 25.3 average with 90% highway and 10% in town.

On an island my avg mph is usually around 25 to 28 and mpg around 16 to 18, however I am usually the lead car at stop lights!
