Petrol Saver!

A good economy tune in an F6 can see around 7.5 litres to the 100kms on the highway at 110kmh

I just did the run to NQ and averaged 8.1 l/100km over the 2200 km's for the event.

Hi Blonk,

That's pretty good! I recently did about 200km and followed a bus most of the way and averaged 8.7l /100km with a stock BF XR6T. I was pretty impressed with that figure until I read your post!

I just wanted to share with everyone how happy I am with the fuel consumption of the BF XR6!!!

I've had my car for just over one month and I am so surprised to see that every time I fill up $40 worth of petrol my tank is full!!!

For such a big car it is definitely fuel friendly - I'm loving it!

Am finally the owner of a new BF2T ( waited 8 years since the purchase of the 1st AUXR6VCT ), have 1,600km's on the clock and despite my fear of fuel consumption (after regularly reading this forum was a tad gun shy of purchasing a real petrol glugger!) need to advise of the following petrol consumption to date during the running in period:-

1) Round town (in Canberra) in ultra hot weather with aircon and the occasional spurt off the lights and the 'hey wake up' to 1/2 asleep public servant drivers am getting under 12L/100km's

2) On the freeway sitting on cruise with aircon on just under 120kmh wiith the occasional 'gunning' am getting under 10L/100Km's.

The car is stock 6 speed auto apart from Ford approved and 'warranted' John Bowe CAI and 80mm 'Signature Series' throttle body. Am I pleased or what?

Consumption is based on calculating actual litres put in the tank since last speedo reading, however am finding the trip computer readings fairly accurate also

Great to see you back Mr Bean, did you not have a GT?

@ Scotty - the BF MKII Falcon is my Company car, I luv it.

For my personal vehicle, I opted for the F6 Tornado, after a testdrive in that I had to take it over the GT Super Pursuit. Still feel the same way after 2 months.

Off to Simon at Nizpro for some 385rwkw action.

Will keep you posted.
