172 ph2
I was amazed to see that my 172 managed 50.4 mpg!! in an attempt to save fuel i drove at 40mph changing at 2.5/3k..well happy with the results...
I'm fairly sure someone on here once got 50.5!
Would make me sad driving that slow tbh![]()
99.9mpg going downhill in 5th @ 30mph just after resetting do i win??

Just filled up the car for the second time since I bought it.
345miles mostly going 10miles to work & back with a couple of fun drives. Computer said 41.6MPG, at the pump it worked out at 38.6MPG.
My Pug 405 1.8 8V does 37MPG on the same type of run (minus the fun drives).
Higgy.
I wonder what it was they did that made the 197 soooooooooo bad on fuel. 40+mpg is just not possible in mine, mid 30s is a target!

:boring: I'd have bought a dci if i wanted mpg.
i still doubt claims on mpg on this forum 56mpg is hard work in my dci :dead: if you can get 50mpg then we wouldn't need diesels
Don't get me wrong, I'm averaging in the low 30's normally. However 50mpg is EASILY attainable if you drive slowly enough. Christ, I reset the counter mid-drive earlier and hit 90 odd initially.
+1 why are the 197s so much worse on fuel? purly because of extra weight?
