Do you have a hole in a fuel pipe or the tank somewhere?
#18: Re: What is your average MPG? Author: copey, Location: rochdalePosted: Mon Sep 05, 2011 6:22 am ---- round about 54mpg
#19: Re: What is your average MPG? Author: smiddies, Location: BrightonPosted: Mon Sep 05, 2011 6:29 am ---- I hate it when people post up these kinds of topics,
You all have different driving styles, different cars/engines, service your car differently, use different fuel, so many differents....
So how on earth do you think that this topic will help????
As for why the 1.4's are s**t on mpg, is because the 1.4 engine itself is s**t and compared to other 1.4s of that time!
Just remember the 180 is a younger engine, and more of an advanced engine as to fuel MPG etc etc
#20: Re: What is your average MPG? Author: dafdavies, Location: LLandysulPosted: Mon Sep 05, 2011 6:39 am ---- I get 200 miles out of £20 nicely
#21: Re: What is your average MPG? Author: macj, Location: EssexPosted: Mon Sep 05, 2011 6:45 am ---- I get 4 miles to the gallon on stage

Why read it then? There is no need to be like that when I just wanted to start a conversation about other peoples cars. Just curious as to what other engine sizes got, and how other people drive to return their mpg figures.

To give you ideas on what you have missed out on...
-Service details, what oil, what filters, how often, that will all effects MPG,
-Type of fuel you use
-Time of the day and the weather, including temperature, wind speed, wind direction all effects MPG
-How you drive, do you engine break, are you harsh on your brakes, do you let your engine warm up before setting off, all effects MPG
-Tyres, what type do you use, how bald are they, how are they cambered?
-Weight in the car, how heavy are you, have you got extra weight like subs boxes etc, do u drive with other people in the car
Have I missed anything?

I was lucky to average 28 out of mine. So I'm guessing your driving style is more James May than Jeremy Clarkson

Not at all pal, I actually have quite a heavy right foot
I think I get that kind of mpg by staying at a constant speed on the lanes on the way to work, it's 33 miles to work and virtually no stops at junctions etc, also the noise of the janspeed makes me accelerate harder than normal
