Sorry to rain on your parade but those numbers are not relevant. If i drive the car really hard (lets say 100-120mph) and then gas the tank up, it might say 400 miles in tank when i start. If i then drive gently for thirty miles at 50mph, it might still say 400 miles (because it calculates based on average mpg for the most recent period).

That's fairly on par with what's possible for a 4.8i given optimal conditions. UK gallons are larger than US gallons. 29,4/1 gal UK is 24,5/1 gal US. Add in an average speed of 52,2mph and a fair amount of coasting (thank BMW's torque converter technology) and I don't see why others can't replicate this.
