I reset the MPG on the display and trip distance and then topped up to half a tank, half a tank gave me 130 miles @ 26 mpg is that about right? This is for a 2.0 litre 180 also.

You have a 180 and your worrying about MPG.....
But that does sound about right, or though you could get a better answer if you tell us what your driving style is like

You bought a early hot hatchback which are notorious for low MPG lol. Newer hot hatchs can do like average 40mpg or something now.
Should of been prepared when you bought your 180GTI

I'm fine with the figures, just wanted to check if I am getting the correct MPG because of the minor exhaust fuel leak which I am hoping to get replaced soon now Only fault I didn't see coming was the snapped cambelt
