1996 W124 E320 Coupé, 1990 W124 300E twin turbo, 1991 W126 300 SE, 1984 Ford Capri 2.8i
I get about 25 per UK gallon (21 per US gallon) out of the M103 in my W126 and perhaps 1mpg less out of the twin-turbo M103 in my W124. My driving style is gentle to moderate, rarely fierce.
P.S. After multiple conversions from km to miles, and UK to US gallons:
M103 in the W124
Constant 75mph: 27.17mpg(UK), 22.55mpg(US)
Constant 56mph: 32.86mpg(UK), 27.27mpg(US)
City use: 21.25mpg(UK), 17.64mpg(US)
