fuel economy

Hi chaps, I'm thinking of buying an 03 model s60 D5 auto, I just wondered what mpg you owners get on motorway 80-90 mph ish & round town type driving? Thanks

probably about 42 ish

Hi, You're driving on motorways at 80 to 90 mph?? :sad-smiley-023: :speechless-smiley-1 Des. . . ;)

Thanks for the info, is there anything specific I should inspect on a prospective purchase, besides the obvious? Can you get a detailed service history print out via Volvo for a car? Thanks again

Check the Sticky at the top of this forum: Yes, a Volvo dealership can provide you with every detail of your car down to what options were ordered at time of purchase when new.

I easily get 55+ on motorways/ long runs. Around town i'm down in the 25-30's. Combined I average around 41 this time of year, to 45 in the summer. Vipes

So how does that work? You have an overdrive for the Motorway and drive at 65? And only use gears 1 to 3 round town???
