Mine is now on 20000km with an average of 25 US mpg.
Yes I do have quite a heavy foot but still.
I have tried a few times to really drive economical but can never reach lower than 0,9 l/100km when I do the 200km trip to my countryhouse. And that is in ECO-mode.
lapa I always use ECO PRO when on motorways/dual carridgways....don't really drive with too much of a lead-boot.
It's not my car but I have a loaner and was desperate to contribute.

X5 40D
800 miles on clock
Dual carriage way and a roads
Just in normal setting

Can't wait to get mine now
