PAH Donating Members 361 Member For: 15y 10m 1d Gender: Male Posted 23/02/09 12:38 PM Share Posted 23/02/09 12:38 PM Hi all,I just sold my VY SV8. I'm driving a BF loaner while I wait for my FG XR6T towards then end of the week.The SV8 gave 13's L / 100 kms around Sydney with careful driving using Shell V-Power. The economy seemed to drop off a tad with other brands. It dropped off HEAPS with E10. E10 has to be significantly cheaper to break even.I will be interested to see what sort of economy I can get out of the FG. I want suss out economy using V-Power vs the rest. No - I don't work for Shell. Maybe there's something in advertising. Looking back over the years, I've always used the oils that supported the HDT. Ooops. Wrong forum for that comment? Not to worry - Brocky's mate Craig has scored a hat trick after signing up with Ford. Only a dog offers unconditional loyalty when there's a better mouse trap to be had. I know - that's a a mixed metaphor, but we can burn that bridge when we come to it. PAH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the fuel you use plays a pretty big part as well because I went from using 95 to 98 when I got the mods done and it changed ALOT. I get alot more from a full tank, and I dont drive like a nana either!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
