Only had the cup a week but really suprised how good it is on fuel!
My GTi-6 has a 60 litre tank so costs more to fill up, and only get around 25mpg in that. Had 45 the other day driving like a granny and 30 when giving it some size 12s. Give it a year and it should pay for its self

Hahaha awesome!
Person getting 23mpg from a 1.2, oh dear! Something a miss with that, even if you gave it absolute havoc everywhere you drive you should be looking way north of 25mpg! It's not exactly a high performance car!
Monaco RS Clio 172
did a long run down to ktec today...
round trip - 280 miles
cost: £30
almost 100 miles to £10!!!
this is proven also by light was on, stuck £30 v power in, went there, came back, as I pulled on the drive, light turned on. PERFECT way to judge it. so I really am getting high mpg... I was travelling at around 70 on the way down and 85-90 baked beans on the way back so.. not exactly a proper petrol save either
btw much respect to ktec loving the recessed exhaust

i get around 28 mpg in my 1.6 but seems i only get around 140 miles to 20 pounds of petrol
23 MPG from a 1.6? f**king hell do you drive on the rev limiter all day long? lol :rasp:
I'm currently getting 32/33 MPG from a mixture of town/motorway driving.
Coupe/Defender V8
I indicate around 27mpg but mine is pretty much stop start for 14 miles a day. Don't get above 30mph.
On a run at 60-70 I will be doing 40mpg.
With a mix of driving, 30-34mpg
150miles = £22ish quid of v power around town with an odd drive on a weekend.

oddly, for example, as above, yesterday, I achieve 3/4 of a tank for ktec and back, indicated 280 miles, roughly £10 = 100 miles.
today I do work and back, blackwall tunnel solid, there and back, 80 mile round trip, so theoretically, give or take, I should have used £10 max possibly less, right?
sitting in traffic, my car has used nearly half a tank today
I grant you this 80 miles over all probably took me 4.5 - 5 hours between morning and on the way home but still, it is using TWICE as much petrol to idle and stop start in (today) particularly bad traffic thru london
epic fail.
