Doubt it’s very much more expensive than operating a D3 V8

Looks to be roughly half in California according to https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/PET_PRI_GND_A_EPMP_PTE_DPGAL_A.htm. Converted from USD to EUR and then converted US gallons to liters and ended up with 0.734 eur/liter. I paid yesterday 1.404 e/l myself.
Cheers all! Very pleased with my purchase so far. I was looking at newer V6’s but always loved the V8, so when this came up locally with the HD pack it was a no brainer.
Hopefully coming to a calendar near you soon
Oh and my last fill up - premium gas of course - was 2.55 a gallon 8)'80 109 Stage 1 V8 - still going strong!

Having paid a fortune for one of the last Landmarks (US) I can attest to the fact that prices are strong for these. Never tried the V8 5L (my D3 was the V8 and I loved it).
Looks loverly! Let us know how you get on with her.PAGODA

Very nice
Fuel in the UK is currently approx 1.20GBP per litre, and we run 4.55 litres per gallon as opposed to your 4 litres per gallon.
So that roughly equates to 6.60 dollars for 1 US gallon!

Hi. I have a HSE. Yesterday when I started it and accelerated I felt a vibration. I stopped and went into N then back to D and it went. Can anyone please help.
