Sounds about right going from my 523i, thirstier than my E60 which I'm suprised at. |

with 7 miles one way I would guess you not even see 20mpg. |

glad you said that - i get around 22mpg.... if i get a good run - which i try do once a week - representing about 1/4 of tank usage - the tank then usually returns 25/26 mpg.... i have had it above 30 on a long run though..... |
