Well sit at 60 then
A P6 will cruise at 70 quite happily & a 2000SC manual can actually manage 30mpg but aim for mid to high 20s a 2200 is a nicer engine with a lot more grunt but slightly thirstier plus you wont get a tax exempt one, a good 2200TC will go as well as a V8 but dont expect much more than 20mpg
