I know people with M3's and they get 30mpg on extra urban. Which is the same as the 200.

Ph1 172 and Red 197
Thats good. lots of granny drivin then
Skoda fabia Vrs
Sarcastic? lol
Powerfull cars pull there own weight better which in turn uses less fuel at slower speeds.. M3 etc
Clio 182 Trophy. No. 189
At 60 on the motor way i have seen 36mpg pop up on the computer, but on long drives at 70 its around 35mpg so to be honest no where near as bad as an M3. If i boot it i get around 28mpg and my mates m3 is lucky to see double figures.

That's awesome MPG for a mk3, I've never seen 30mpg... mine sits around the low 20's.

Did you push it?
Fiesta STripes
The best I had was 35,7 mpg beaning it on empty fast roads in the North of Scotland. I get about 29-30 on motorway.
Car is for fun, wouldn't have bought it if I were paranoid about MPG

LOL no. I was doing an ultra-mpg test just because I could as the streets were fairly empty. Journey was 50% 30mph, 50% B-road and 50% motorway. Pulling away in 2nd gear and short shifting straight into 6th at 30mph. Extreme MPG Wars :evil:
think you've got ur adding up there a bit wrong roy

Usual cliosport bullshit as always.
Some people say they get 25-28mpg from a 172/182 taking it easy, some say they get 45+. I averaged approx 38mpg over 15k+ miles in the trophy with lowest tanks including driving through central london in rush hour(32mpg on that tank) to driving to work and back on country roads(43mpg on that, could get over 50 if i bothered trying).
Some people say they can't get over 30mpg out of their 197/200, some people get over 35mpg out of theirs. I would expect that the book figures(which are tested in isolated conditions) would be pretty close to reality if you drove in the same manner as the testers in the same situations. I have no doubt that 40-45mpg could be had by cruising at 50-60mph on long flat straight roads without stopping.
People say that the performance to mpg ratio is low? Not really. The other cars mentioned have smaller capacity engines. I had a 2.0 straight 6 bmw that i'd struggle to get over 30mpg out of, thats book figure was pretty close to correct as it has been for every other car i bought.
Comparing to evos and M3s? LMFAO. Yeah.
An evo driven in the same manner that gets 20mpg out of a 200 will give you the wrong side of 10mpg, people that i know with evos struggle to get over 15mpg being sensible. An M3 of E36 or E46 vintage will struggle to get over 15mpg being smashed around country roads or in town, on a smooth run it'll get up to 30 if you're lucky.
Mini cooper S if hammered will happily drop below clio economy, same with corsa vxr. If you live on boost you will drink more fuel than an N/A car, if you cruise along at 60 at light throttle, of course the 400cc less will use less fuel...
Seriously, cliosport really does have some(quite a lot of) retarded threads with lots of clueless retarded posts by people that think they know what they're talking about...
