xyber 1 Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 I never notice the best but id estimate 18 at motorway cruising speed, my worst was 9 mpg, making good time on the motorway Link to post Share on other sites
VDub_Steve 1 Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 About 30mpg at 80mph Link to post Share on other sites
spindat45 0 Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 I've seen 36.7 (according to the MFA) at a constant 50mph in 5th gear on the North Circular. I think it crept up to 37.0 for a few seconds when i lifted off slightly but it sat at 36 for quite a while. Might be slightly out due to the charger being fitted but I don't think so Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Seabrook 4 Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 On general driving a & b road stuff I tend to get about 25-30mpg and a bit more on the motorway - and about 10 if I am being silly actually think it's improved a bit since I have had the charger as I dont have to accelerate so hard Link to post Share on other sites
