I have the 1.4 16v and get around 45mpg motorway or 30 mpg town. I wouldnt trust the ipod app i personally would go by the trip computer instead. Best thing to try is changing your driving style such cp when you change gear or breakin etc. Unfortunately pug 1.4's are thirsty engines.

You used caps. That suggests shouting. Therefore, that's not nice. Maybe you should take note of this.
#19: Re: Excessive fuel usage Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Sat Jan 29, 2011 8:02 am ---- your both as bad as eachother lol.
(you would get better mpg in a daewoo matiz though )
on a side note the engine does not idle higher when cold to "warm up faster" LOL
its because when an engine is cold there is a lower amont of vaporisation when fuel enters the cylinder. more fuel is needed for combustion. hence when it does ignite the revs are slightly higher.

im just stating if your so sad enough to count mpg on a tiny engined 206 you need to think smaller,
#21: Re: Excessive fuel usage Author: kerry, Location: SomersetPosted: Sat Jan 29, 2011 1:38 pm ---- I've always normally had nice sporty cars ie Escort cosworth, Audi A4 tdi, Peugeot 406 executive, now got this 206 which was might to be a cheap to run around in and its not at all, quite disappointing really because with all the other fast car i haven't minded putting the fuel in because they've been fun to drive but they were better on fuel than this lol
