I get on average 34mpg in my 180!!!
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
That's about my experience also; 8,4 - 8,5 liters/100 km which works out to somewhere between 33 and 34 mpg (UK). In city traffic (fairly main routes, not extreme city center) it definitely pays to look ahead and coast instead of slamming on the brakes at the light. Not that I don't like to step on it if I happen to be up front at a red light... Same with stop and go queues, I try to roll slowly continuously rather than accelerate, brake, accelerate etc
My commute is about 75% motorway, currently with highly annoying roadworks, and rest as above

is tht it, when coasting i get 999.9
My average is about 24 but that is 99% twn driving. If i do motorway trips i can take it to 35 roughly. If i put my foot to the floor the instant goes down to roughly 5-6 mpg
#41: Re: What is your average MPG? Author: Andreus84, Location: NorfolkPosted: Thu Sep 08, 2011 5:36 am ---- My car varies considerably.
1.4hdi - as standard I get about 56mpg.
When it was remapped it'd give 58mpg.
Dependant upon trips etc i've varied - 4 up to wales with camping gear etc (no spare space in car) I got 48mpg.
Best I've had is 62mpg when i went accross France.
