Looking to buy a 7 series 3.5 or above around about 96 -99
what is the MPG? I have been looking at the jag XJ 3.2 which does about 25 mpg - are they comparable. I will be converting to LPG any known issues with the big beemers on LPG?? Thanks |

Around town it's less frugal and averages about 18-20. If I'm feeling enthusiastic I can get it down to 14, or so, maybe less if very enthusiastic :-) -- Regards Steve G |
