I suppose a lot will compare it to the Macan GTS MPG but the 911 is a fair bit lighter.
The PDK is also better on fuel economy than the manual too.

Both cars have PDK. ;)

Sorry I meant on the 911 PDK and 911 Manual MPG differ with PDK being better. Still amazing MPG imo.

Interested to hear how many miles you can get from a full tank...which I think is 64L?
67 litres I think and a safe 300 Miles in mixed driving without the fuel light coming on. Only put 48 litres in when I filled it up from just above the reserve

I was surprised o get 28mpg when i test drove the 911GTS for a weekend. Didn't drive it particularly easy so was very impressed.

Reading this thread just made me check the tank size on the Giulia - pretty small at 58L.

64 litres will be a bit of a drop after the 90 litre tank in my Panamera. :geek:

When do you get the Alfa, Hawkeye?

I probably could have pushed to have it this weekend, but I was reluctant to given the snow. It’s a car that really does need winter tyres, so thought best to delay.

Likely I will get it at some point during the week or worst case next weekend. I’m very busy at work so a mid week collection may not be possible.

Sounds like yours is not far away now. How exciting! I love the Alfa, but would really love to be picking up a new 911.

I think that's a wise move, Hawkeye, given the amber weather warnings for the South East this weekend. I've reluctantly postponed my trip to Kent to see my daughters until next weekend.

Yes, very exciting! Friday 6th April booked off work to (hopefully) collect my Carrera T! :)
