That’s a great and very detailed response and good to hear from a real life user. I must say though 36 mpg for a weekend away makes Satan’s fuel look wonderful, I was getting similar (slightly less) from a 350hp V6 petrol Audi SQ5, and would reckon the latest S4 Avant will break 40 under similar usage (and be just as quick).
Hybrids are for a very specific type of user currently - most seem to be company car drivers more worried about BIK than the environment...
I have shelved plans for a V60 PE as much of my use is weekend trips with no chance to plug in whilst away (unless I use motorway services and make my 2.5 hour journey 3.5 hours long!) and a return to Satan’s fuel for a rapid refined economical estate does seem on the cards...
