Hi all
Just bought my 1999 GS300 sport and have done a couple of long runs (motorway averaged 78 MPH) and for 221 miles I used 8.8 gallons of fuel does that sound ok I know they are renowned for being a bit thirsty.

My series 1 GS300 sport with 146000 on clock was giving around 28/30 on m/ways at that sort of speed and didn't have vvti. My GS430 is giving around 28 on m/ways at around the same speed. Your figure of 25mpg seems a little low to me , but could be different driving styles.

I match what dave says above....25 mpg sounds a little thirsty - I get 27/28 out my 430 on a motorway run - and thats not hanging about either.

I can get 25 mpg on my drive to work in the morning on the A5 if I take it easy....thats with quite a few stops and starts

Thanks Dave
I will get it checked out as that was driving with a very light foot.

Thanks Mark
I will have to get it checked out

I've got a 2003 GS 430 and get about 18 around town and about 30 on the motorway.
