Consommation excessive

JMC Model 2000

Maniabilité et tenue de route sont au rendez-vous. Par contre la consommation donnée sur les fiches techniques est très très très optimiste. En roulant tranquillement, je flirte toujours avec les 10 litres aux 100 km, chargé ou pas. On est très loin de 5,5 annoncés. 05/20/2022 07:34 Rating : 5/5 Respond to JMC
