The 'What MPG Do You Get?' Thread

[Gouldy]

When its not broken and in bits I am averaging 57 MPG, I nearly hit the "800 mile out of a tank" before it blew up.

Stupid van

 

[.Stevo.C.]

I'm getting between 34 and 41 in my 172, wether that's accurate is debatable.

 

[Ben]

How smalls is your tank :S

Same size as yours, but don't forget he posted this 5.5 years ago when fuel was much cheaper. £140.9 here

 

[v15ben]

I got 34.5MPG out of my standard 182 over about 20k miles.
Once had 8MPG after some spirited miles

 

[SamP]

Between 6 and 29.7, depends how much booooooost.

 

[SharkyUK]

21mpg seems to be about the average - 182 Trophy with a few mod's. The short-ish commute to/from work probably doesn't help, especially being a daily driver.

thats all im seeing latley 21mpg due to very short trips to work

 

[pug_leg]

Usually get 33-35 (calculated) on my short commute but was stuck in the 50 limit on a motorway journey and got over 41

 

[timuss]

Currently getting less than 30 going back to the garage there must be a fault somewhere. Even on a motorway today at 70mph i wasn't even touching 30. Trip computer had my average speed at 15mph??!!

 

[steve32c]

I can get a steady 42mpg at a constant 64mph which is good on on a long motorway drive but bloody boring

 

[alanc1000]

mine always ends up on 30mpg after a few days / weeks

 

[Jordi17]

Mine currently says 27.5 mpg

 

[dezmondo]

Wow a near 5 year thread resurection.

I get 29-31 from a 182 with Ktec panel filter, RS192 and a lead filled right foot!

 

[Iain 007]

Just shy of 30MPG over 2k miles.

 

[Sarah443]

I get 32 mpg in my 182 trophy

You have to re set on some of the trip computer, it doesnt always re-set everything else.

 

[SC03OTT]

28.3, calculated. Calculated to see how accurate the trip comp is (bang on as it happens) and not because it interests me.

Not a Clio either.

 

[CJGREEN]

Mine shows 27.6mpg usually. Got 30.4mpg from Manchester to Preston other day doing slightly over 70ish on Cruise control.

 

[STRBramley]

28-29 Usually. Highest I got was from Nottingham to Dover when I was going to the ring which was 41mpg.

 

[Jimbo_M]

I normally average around 33mpg i would say.

 

[air-alex]

Usually get around 30-35 on my 20 mile commute to work

 

[fletch8]

my average is around 36 and thats mostly town driving, the odd 15 mile motorway run, and thats the last thousand average too

 

[pug_leg]

you win! how were you driving to get that? 50 in 5th??

 

[air-alex]

you win! how were you driving to get that? 50 in 5th??

ahah yeah pretty much! Never going over 2K-ish in every gear, no harsh acceleration and breaking as little as possible. Pretty boring drive though!

 

[Cup_Phil]

I get about 21mpg if I drive really slowly LOL

 

[Altheval]

£38 to fill a tank in 2006! FFS!

 

[danvilla2]

34 if I'm lucky.

 

[DaveDreads]

I don't seem to be able to reset my trip computer, either that or it's broken.

It pretty much says 35mpg all the time.

 

[Harpham]

My average atm is 40mpg, purely because i'm a massive MPG ***** and need a full tank to last week a full 7 days LOL. Doing a silly amount of mileage atm.
Generally it is a little bit lower.

 

[pastieman]

32 mpg town driving stop start pleased that a tank lasts me two weeks in the clio

 

[Fern.]

Hehee! I can get 61.... at most... normally 45-57 ishh

 

[gaz_5103]

I get 18

 

[Rhys Beal]

Snetterton last weekend mine averaged 14.5mpg.

Does that sound about right for track use?

 

[jackthewelshman]

I get an average of about 39.5MPG, my journey times probably average out at about 20 mins? And this isn't even going slow, economical when possible / in traffic, 5th gear in 40 zones etc, but I still give it the boot when there's an open road or some overtaking opportunities to be had.

The best I got was 46.8MPG on a 50 minute trip (during the trip it did exceed 47 at one point).

 

[GiT]

17 - 20 mpg in town. 30 odd on a Motorway run.

 

[st3ve]

I got 39.8mpg on a 140 mile journey on Thursday night with the back of the car brimmed to the roof full of stuff which I thought was quite good.

 

[silvercup172]

i got 44 mpg going to le mans from seaford.that was fully loaded 3 passengers and suit cases. get about 34mpg around the town not bad for a 2litre petrol.

[Dunn]
