That said, I usually have one of my kids in the car so it is driven more sedately than some others on here. somestick

FWIW, this mileage is based an auto car normally driven in auto mode. Whilst the 'manual' mode is huge fun and transforms the car into a bit of a monster, I'm usually content to cruise - it seems to suit the experience better.

Incidentally, the colour of Rich's car is I think Liquid Metal (grey). I'm very envious, it is my favourite colour and I understand Matt Humphries used this colour when he conceived the design, so it is special in that regard.

I hope you find the car you want

I've never been able to get that sort of mileage of of a 4.8L Aero Stuart, maybe I've got a heavy right foot, but I'm always starting to thing about re-filling the tank after it's done 200 miles! frown

As regards the colour, I think it's called Liquid Mercury - I believe it was an AMG colour originally and for the AeroMax was a £10k extra. I agree it is a stunning colour for the car and there is a photo of Rich's Max taken at Cheltenham, just after I'd had it extensively detailed, by a professional photographer from slightly above which is one of my all time favourite photos of the Max.
