garfy 0 Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 I think the stuff you put in it makes a difference. The 98 RON in France (Total Excellium) certainly seemed to give better power AND economy than the 97 we get over here. And all at 93p/litre! Link to post Share on other sites

dwa1974 0 Posted July 21, 2007 Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 I keep my MFA on either oil temp or time - don't even bother with MPG. Just enjoy it I say. The Golf VR6 was not built to be an 'economical' car. Fact. Link to post Share on other sites
VwubbleU 1 Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Mine depresses me if i look at it too much!!generally, i will see between 16, and 22 mpg, and thats enough for me!I did manage to get 30.3 mpg on a longer drive a little while ago, but i was crawling!Who cares about petrol, the sound and enjoyment is enough!I put at least a tenner a day in mine, and im only 19 with a part time job, so surely everyone else can afford it!!
