It's worse than that, it's a 6.0l! Actually the consumption isn't too bad, they have so much lazy torque that they can quite happily chug along at 80mph on the motorway doing 30mpg and the supercharger is rather clever in that it shuts itself off when it's not being used to save fuel.

I cant believe a 60l is economical with or without supercharger but if money was no option I'd get one tomorrow.

Yeah I know what you mean I use to try and keep off the boost with my GT in an attempt to improve economy but it didn't work and that was only a 1.4
