Hi Gav

I brought mine south 280 miles today. By driving like Miss Daisy and never once pressing the sport button i achieved 27.5 MPG. Mainly A66 and A1 and not exceeding the limits (M’lud :wink: )

That’s about as good as it gets in the manual S :astonished:

:smiley:

Very nice

Tim, I knew it was going to be a dearer car to run with regards tax/fuel/tyres etc its just when you see the gauge saying 23mpg :astonished: when without trying my old one would give 27 mpg it just brings it home! Ive got no doubt I will get over it :smiley:

Yep, i fill up at a cost of around £60 a go, and get around 300 miles from it so i’m happy enough with that as it is not my daily driver.

Update: 28 MPG average with a single 280 mile trip plus a number of separate 5 mile trips covering another 30 miles.

Lovely Jubbly :mrgreen:

Mine is around 27mpg running about (or rather Christine going to work and back).

It did about 35mpg on the run to Hethel last month.

Jonny will be pleased to hear NA rules :wink:

24 mpg back home tonight A1/A66 280 miles. A tad more spirited today.
