Not bad at all, you don't buy one of the most beautiful cars ever made, to count the cost per miles, its best to count smiles per miles...

Sarah, don't know if you have ever been in one but by the christ they are a bit good. Comfy, torque and if one is a poser (who me) the attraction it generates is amasing. Best driven at 50/60 mph.
Love it.

Did it as a matter of interest, As i did one time driving through Germany in the M5. I got that down to 8 mpg.
As you say you don't buy these cars if you are concerned about the mpg.

No Robert I've never been in one, just admired a whole lot of them, I know when first made they set a new bench mark in car manufacturing. No wonder you get a lot of looks as I believe your is in the best colour combination
And owning one should give you the biggest smile
Do you go to the garage to just gawp at it

About 16 mpg (Imperial) for a MotoGP bike.
