197 Economy?

[sar197]

i think the conclusion is the 197 is rubbish on fuel, but amazing to drive!

yes agreed!

 

[sar197]

Juding by your comments I get the impression that you probably think that all sports car drivers should drive like nutters everywhere. Pretty irresponsible attitude I would say.

Well no, not really. I have nil points. However, I don't tootle around looking at my mpg, and if I did, I'd be looking at realistic figures for how I drive, especially if someone were to ask me what mpg I get in my 182. I've seen my trip read as high as 49mpg but that's not my mpg. I believe that's all Seb was trying to point out.

Ok case closed!

hate to do this but i have to eat my words!!!!

been doing a 25 mile commute. 8 miles at about 50mph, then the rest at 70mph on dual carriageway.

i have managed 34mpg over a full tank full according to the onboard computer, so thats 33mpg.

but i have been driving like granny...

 

[Alan]

Less than 25mpg is where its at seberino and you fvckin knowsit!!

Life beggins at 5grand..

I got 340 miles out of my tank last week before the fuel light came on. Cost me £58 to fill it back up!

This week it's averaging 29mpg with me driving very gently.

On track it got down to 14mpg!

 

[seb]

knows... tbh, i got bored of driving like my mum after this episode!!!

I was out a week ago going to a mates and was ragging the tits off the 197 on a lovely bit of a road. came round a lovely bend and was gunning it in 2nd. went past some bikers who were in a lay by. went past jsut as i was changing to 3rd at full beans. they f**king loved it as roared into the distance.

-20mpg is where it is at

 

[Iridium]

Mines showing 31mpg at the moment. It's been average length runs since I filled it. Planning on giving it some beans today when it comes back from been serviced and getting the arm thing done under warranty

Doing long journeys, is 300 miles from a tank realistic then?

 

[seb]

yeah 300 should be no issue

 

[Iridium]

Sweet, that's what we've budgetted for for our cruise across the EU

Not even worth bothering with lol

 

[sar197]

lol quick enough to insult others arnt we Seb!!
What a bunch sad obsessive jokers you and your little clan are.

 

[Iridium]

Have I missed something here...?

 

[Stevo_172]

It's called chavsport.net

Where pussies like Seb and Alan are obsessed with licking each others bums and posting their useless lives away on the internet.

 

[seb]

this is what makes me sad about cliosport. we have some banter and fun but then people like stevo_172 who got banned for quite sometime due to being abusive, made dual users and even said to me he was only on here to flame bait seem to get rather upset about nothing....

but still, i wish my magical 197 does 40mpg...

edit - i also have no idea why you found my post where i ADMITTED to getting a decnet mpg as being so bad? strange.

Seriously. if you dont like it here, go away.

If you do, show some respect to your fellow members and the staff that put ALOT of effort into this place.

PMSL @ 35mpg!
(Unless your house is at the top of everest and you winch it back up, in which case..)

 

[Stevo_172]

Perhaps you should ask your staff to start playing by their own rules.

Bullying sar197 on other posts is 1 example.

Joker! lol

 

[seb]

i'm sorry, but not agreeing with sar197 over a discussion is hardly bullying. i haven't been calling sar197 a ''wet faggot'' unlike yourself towards me?

 

[Tom]

Not worth it. Points make prizes seb.

Jus say you wanna smash her back doors in, would be much easier...

Wanna fvck or does mummy not let you out by yourself yet?

You are the weakest link, goodbye!

[Dash]

Wet faggot is a wee bit harsh.

 

[Dafthead]

Wee faggot is harsh, especially as he's not small

BIG FAGGOT FTW

 

[seb]

closed the thread but left it in place since it does give a useful insight into the 197 economy. may even tidy it up after my dinner.
