320i Mileage

[venom.carnage]

What MPG does anyone out there get from their 320i 1990?

I'm just trying to work out if mine is a bit too thirsty?

Any tips?

[B] hi i have an E30 320i auto and its not that brilliant especialy if you got a heavy right foot. have said that i also had a 320i manual and that was very good , i would say 35 to 40 mpg and that was driving quite hard. the car had done 120,000 so with that kind of mileage i thought it was pretty good. hope this is some help. :wink

You are talking british MPG right?

320i's normally get about the same milage as 325i.
With a light foot you can get it under 325i milage at highway type driving.

My 3 320i's all got about 26mpg (US) in average.

Thanks man.

UK gallon is 4.545 liter
US gallon is 3.785 liter

So you get 20% more miles out of a UK gallon.
