What do all you experts say an 88F 560SEL should return in mpg for town & m'way driving ? I'd be grateful to know.
I've just had mine serviced with Mobil 1 0W/40 & Bosch Super4 spark plugs , both of which I've used several times before in my previous 500SEC.
The other thing is what tyres would you recommend for economy ? At the moment I've got a mish mash of nonsense on all 4 tyres but then running these cars on a "budget" always does call for an initial sacrifice.
I used to run the 500 on Avon which I really liked for being soft and quiet. I used to get about 22 mpg on the m'way at anything from 80 - 90 mph. That I could live with. Is it really true that if you reduce speed to 70 - 75 mph the 560 will return the official & manufacturer's claims ?
All info glady appreciated.
