R32 fuel consumption, quick reply needed!

[Obbzi]

I have just been offered an unbelieveable deal on an R32. I am sooo tempted to say yes, but I need to step back and work out the figures.

Roughly how many miles do you get to a full tank of fuel and how much does it cost to fill up? I will be doing mainly motorway miles.

Reason i ask is, I had decided to get a GTI because I do over 1500 miles a month so fuel consumption is a major factor.

Thanks for your help guys

Didn't you already ask me this?

300 miles per tank give or take. 50-something quid to fill up. I do around 1200 miles a month and spend about 250 - 300 per month on petrol.

Yes I did ask you!

I had decided to go for a GTI but have just had a phonecall about an R32 that is too good to turn down

DO IT... Ive had two. awesome car and driven "STEADY" it honestly isnt that bad on fuel.And lets face it it,ll stop you getting done for speeding wont it...

An the 32 is more exclusive than these common GTIS

My long term average in a mk4 R32 was 27mpg, I am tempted to change back to one I must admit, mainly as I miss the 4wd.

The GTI average is 32mpg, same sort of driving.

The only stumbling block now is its only a 3 door, if it was 5 door it would be mine. I have 2 small kids with car seats so need to think before I decide

[topher]

How much are they asking for it? There are plenty of 5 door ones around. I don't have kids but find the extra doors very useful.
