X5 Consumption

[Ecco]

My 3.0d down to Durban this week end, 4 up and fully loaded.
Overall there and back 9.0 l/100km
Quite good I think

The above pic was taken while driving speed cruise at speed limits



The above one here was driving 248kph :rollsmile: and I couldn't catch the ML in front



Above = X5M



Last pic is a spirited driving trip somewhere in the 30d

From what I have noticed.. The E70 facelift with the 8 speed box is lighter on diesel.. But your consumption is very decent!
I once achieved close to 7l per 100ks with my xdrive30d going to Durban. Car was empty and I left it on speed cruise the entire way, with my pre facelift 30d I could only ever get about 9-9.5l/100km.
X5m I struggle to get under 20l/100km

9 fully loaded with 20 inch wheels is very good !

Where you doing 120 all the way ?

I had the cruise control set to 135, and that was it most of the way, when traffic allowed it.
