In my VW Golf 2.0T GTI I get 30mpg at the most on my short 10 minute journey to work. Ive only had it a couple of weeks and have not yet checked what it does on a good run up the motorway.

I have had my car a few months now so I know a bit more. Short 10 minute journeys are still around 30mpg. I drove from Yorkshire today and it ended up 41.3 mpg. The maximum I got was driving like a nun up to New Brighton one night and got it up to 43mpg.
2.0T running on Shell Vpower.

I can't seem to get less than 100 miles on 10 quid in my Porsche. I don't drive fast (because it doesn't  ) but it's the cheapest car I've driven so far.

The peugeot is horrendous on fuel. 30mpg on a motorway run, 25ish running about and about 3 when im giving it death, so i average about 5mpg.
The Nissan does about 30-40 on a motorway depending if i can keep off boost and what sort of speeds im doing. Running about its about 25-30 and after death down to about 14. Again, i average about 17mpg.

The other day I got about 164 miles out of £11 or so of fuel in the 420 which I was well impressed with - thats about 68mpg. Twas mainly motorway driving at 60ish, but some town and A-road driving as well. Overall, id say the norm in it is about 50mpg or so. Im a nice driver. I then ran through about £10 in 80 miles or so, but I was "really" hurting the car tbh lol. Thats about 36mpg still though. Getting about 42mpg in the 75 atm, but at least half of that has been motorway mileage at 60ish, so expecting it to drop in normal driving, supposed to be around 25mpg around town lol. Gonna miss the derv economy, thats for sure! And derv is cheaper than petrol in most places now! Haha Rhys, 19mpg and you do mainly motorway driving, I bet that's one reason to miss the TF then! God knows what your getting around town at busy times looooool!!

I used to get that in my Astra GSi, constant motorway miles, always driven gently, I always got something stupid like 60mpg! The MR2 I bought off Ste was ridiculous on mpg, hardly ever filled it. The Starion was the other end, 17mpg average, never got more than 40 miles out of £10!
