Good morning Our friend ” SL Rider ” has rightly remarked that we sometimes tend to pull something off the subject. Since many of us are currently on the journey (some with their car ), let’s talk about CONSUMPTION. Not the Stuss which the manufacturer indicates, ….. no, what really goes through the Roehre. I come to this idea because our housekeeper (not here ) is traveling with her BMW 630i Coupé over 1900 kilometers to Portugal. My former director and friend comes to Gordes over 700 kilometers highway. ( between Avignon and Apt ). 997 Targa. ( He wants to go away from Porsche ) But the greatest thing is yet to come. I will bring in the next few weeks a new C 5 diesel from Metz to Marbella, this is 2,100 kilometers. The owner leads with a second car ( small Renault with ). Both cars stay in Spain. I am of the opinion that consumption rather something with the weight of the foot and the temperament of the driver has to do with the Gruesses, as well as the crowd of the moon.
