Hired a bog standard Focus in Munich. Got given a maxed out Fiesta RS instead.
Great fun on the autobahn but have emptied very nearly half a tank in 120 miles! Surely this can't be normal?!
Edited to say RS not ST
but have emptied very nearly half a tank in 120 miles!
For context, I get this mileage with a 5.4 litre V8.
This is truth of small capacity, high pressure turbo engines. Can't beat physics and thermodynamics. Make power = use energy.
