Sitting just under 70 (cruise on 66mph) makes a HUGE difference. As soon as you go over 70mph she starts guzzling.
With the average speed cameras on the A9, I cruise 100 miles at 61mph - makes a great positive contribution to the average MPG.

Totally agree. Over 70 in a 185 and it drinks like a footballer! Under 70 and it's not too bad.
