Only driving like an old man can you achieve that. oh wait...

Average speed 59mph
A trip from Cumbria to darn sarf and back
In my old Jag it would be 21mpg
These GTI's are ace.
(I go at a boring pace on motorways because there is no fun in going fast on M ways, that's reserved for the country roads round about)
-
Must be a record!! Averaging 44mpg for 535 miles is unbelievable !!
-
ha thats pretty impressive i manage 41 last night going to york. was following a lorry all the way doing 50 was hard to get it up to that though. as i got to york doing city driveing it went down to 35 still good for the GTI :smiley:

Lies ;)

ha the long distance average is still 26 i was trying to see how high i could get the one that resets after a few hours.. its hard to get to 40 takes ages to go up but comes down really quick. :sad:

I got 44mpg out of my pirelli last week on the motorway. A lot of traffic sitting at 60mph :cool:
-
Impressive. Good to hear, now fuel is costing me £1.25 a litre! :shocked:
-
On a 350 mile trip, I'd averaged 40mpg and still had just under half a tank of fuel. Pretty impressie since this was a fully loaded car (passengers and luggage) and I use the same fuel doing 130mile trip with just me and a weekend bag!
Stuck to 60mph with cruise control. Would have been better had I just kept at 60 rather than overtaking lorries.
And I just paid 130.9 per litre for V-juice.

535 miles on one tank is pretty impressive for the gti!
I Cover 200miles p/wk in mine, and fill up on average every 2 weeks!
But i do like to sink the boot on occasion :wink:
-
No effing way!!!! 535 miles out of one tank :shocked:
I'm not having that :wink:
I get 380-400 if i drive like a fairy

Egbert Nosh is a bit of "character" who I think has escaped from the nut house to be honest.

I just spent 2 weeks in France bimbling around doing just under 2000 miles on my hols.
First 1000 i got 40 mpg and i was chuffed with that (that was on cruise at just under 70 mph).
The 2nd 1000 miles i got 35 mpg - mainly due to the cruise sat at 80 on the auto route, 150 miles of poo yer pants mountain trails just wide enough for one car oh and the 50 bottles of wine in the boot :rolleyes:
