I'm averaging about 600km or so out of my last few tanks in my Mk5 Golf GTI 2.0 TFSI. Works out at roughly 32 mpg.

I would guestimate late teens early 20's.

38 litres to about 140 miles if anyone can tell me how to work it out?!

Ouch! Thats 10mpg less than what I used to get on the Integra Type R

Its an approx calculation but yeah that sounds about right (if a little on the conservatiev side)

20 MPG at best, for mostly motorway driving.... not the most economical :P

mpg - miles per gallon

so divide the miles by the gallons (gallons are litres divided by 4.54)

darren1980

62 mpg. Hyundai i20, 1.2.

I should add that there was very little town driving during this test - distance travel mainly with very little stop/start driving, and steady speeds of 80-100 kph.

Thats shocking stats for a car of that size! My 2.0l TFSI gives me close to 33 mpg and I wouldn't have the lightest foot around.

like what? It's over 1.5 tonnes, I presumed the low MPG (would normally be around 22mpg Im told) was due to the weight.

Worst part is, I only recently traded up from a 1.3 fiesta and would regularly see north of 40 mpg in it

EPM

It's only a 1.8 in a heavy car but 22 is very low for motorway driving...

voxpop

getting 25mpg suburban, 30 something on the motorway - thats in a manual 523 (e39) and talking it handy. Think I might have one or more vacuum leaks so hoping this can be improved.

I think that is a crazy figure, my friend has Chevy Blazer, 4.3l V6 and it takes less petrol than your Rover:)

About 10l in motorway, 16-18l in the city that is in mpg 28 - 15

My own Volvo S40 2.0l petrol takes about 30mpg.

2004 RX8

I doubt a 1.8K 75 is over 1500kg to be honest.

As said there is something wrong, first things to check are the plugs and air filter then stuff like the CTS and thermostat, I would get the emissions checked too to ensure they are ok.

The car just did its NCT last week and the listed weight was 1612kg. Only recently serviced, timing belt replaced,oil changed etc.

I'd take the NCT kg with a grain of salt, a car I had was 200kg heavier on one scales then another an hour later
