Did you see that Top Gear where they drove a Pious round their test

M3? (The M3 has the poorest fuel consumption of the 3 series range.)

The Pious used considerably more fuel...


It was a pointless test though, all it showed was using a vehicle in a
way that it's not designed to be used results in less than optimum
performance.


So it's not designed to be driven fast or even enthusiastically? Figures.
