i posted a thread in the fpv &xr forum but it doesnt look like a very well set out forum compared to the e-series section. so my brother wants to buy a ba mk2 xr6t but he doesnt know wat they are like on fuel.
he has a honda accord euro at the moment and was wondering if it will be around the same as that he will be getting a manual one and is hoping to still get around the 600k per tank mark. i no this is the e-series part but alot of other ppl come on here. cheers josh.

Considering you can only get about 55L into the tank, he should expect to get an average of around 450k's from a tank. Average somewhere 'round 13L/100km.

Well he's dreaming if he thinks he wishes to get anywhere near the fuel consumption of his Accord Euro...
I would hazard a guess at averaging around the 14-15 l/100km with mixed driving. Probably around 11 l/10km on the highway. |

well he will be doing a fair bit of highway driving as he works in altona and i dont think its an 80l tank is it. he wasnt hoping to get the same as he gets in his euro just he didnt want to get like only 300k or some bull. so i dont get it my motor as it is gets 600-700k on all highway driving so i dont see why he's wouldnt because its a newer fresher motor and if he doesnt bring it on boost then it should get that. anyway is there any one on here with an xr6t that can actually tell me wat they get.
cheers josh.
