I find the fact that my 47 year old Bristol 407 still gets better fuel
consumption 19mpg than
my friends Range Rover.
Nothing seems to have progressed in V8s for 47 years.
My diesel 270 Eclass though is very good, 42mpg or more on long runs.
Fantastic I think, though I still love my Bristol, just wafts along at
60/70mph with the same comfort as my Merc,
but no P/S,ABS,Aircon,decent ventilation and a little wind noise.

Nick
