I had the 1.8 16v and then coverted it to the 2.0 16v engine and tbh i didnt fill either up anymore than i do my 182 now really and probably drove them engines harder.

I could tell what mpg i was getting on them but to give you an idea im averaging 34.6 in the 182.

28 - 32 on BP Ultimate in my Williams.

Usually bout 29/30..

Used to get 26 on normal unleaded.

Oh and the performance figures = 7.7 to 60 and a top end between 130-135.

Will take you a while with the 1.8 after 90/100 though.

 

[tgaz16v]

thank you people thats a lot better than the 21mpg i used to get from my rs turbo! ive already got some 172 wheels to go on it when i buy one!

 

[JayR]

Good alround cars mate tbh, reliable if you find a good example and keep it looked after too.

my valver is pretty good on fuel tbh. I get about 160 miles on £20 and i give it some sh!t sometimes

My old Renault 19 16v which shares the same 1.8 engine as the Clio used to be pretty economical....used to get around 30 mpg on log runs

I can get 300 miles to a tank (about 30mpg) doing over the motorway speed limit pretty much the whole way

I have got about 33-34 a couple of times, but that's only a couple of times as I can't be arsed to faff around at 56mph LoL

Round town 30mpg is still about where it's at

 

[Tom_16v]

I can do 14mpg on track and 45mpg on the m/way (very constant 60mph!)

Average is about 32mpg mostly town driving, little m/way action and A road thrashing.....

i'm touching on 40mpg (38-39 on motorways) and 370-390 a tank...........i'm determined to hit 400miles for the tank.

oh, on a 1991 valver, stock engine with some cams, stock ECU.

 

[tgaz16v]

bloody hell mate dont you touch the throttle! thats some good mpg in a valver!

 

[Nafoff]

indeed that does seem like a hell of a lot,

tomS has said he sometimes gets 350 in his totally stock valver

in mine with a decat and full system i can get around 300 - 320 to a tank, thats mostly a road and town miles

 

[Wilkeh]

buy one m8, there a minter. I had the Rsi before mine and the valver is much better on fuel. The rsi was quicker through town... but on the open roads... thats another story

 

[BenR]

i'm 2 lines below half way on the tank so far and on 290 miles.....looking good....just have to do my economy run driving skills for longer.
