Spadge Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 In this months MMM there is an item about a tour of the Cognac region, in the summary it quotes 10mpl fuel consumption. That equates to 45.5 per gallon ! That's awfully good mileage for a coach-built or am I missing something ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keithl Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 It's more likely to be 10 litres per 100 kilometres. this equates to 23.5 miles per gallon. Keith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derek500 Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 The usual fuel consumption measurements are Miles per Gallon and Litres/100kms. I expect they've got them mixed up. We used to do 10 litres per 100 km in our coachbuilt, around 28mpg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
