I've had my GTI PP for just about a year now with about 17k on the clock. I've been consistently getting 36-37 mpg over the 100 hour long term measurements. My commute is fairly long and partially over motorways. The route is pretty sedate due to the traffic. Only about 5% of the trip can really be described as spirited.

Pretty much exactly the same. I buzz around on weekends, but it's all motorway during the week. She surprised me this morning and managed 46mpg.

I usually get a combined figure of about 34 -35. On a longer run it climbs to over 40 mpg but then tends to drop again in town. I would rarely get under 30 mpg unless the traffic is severe.

Dont see the point of eco mode on a GTi. I use normal or sport. Average around 32. Got 40 on a long motorway run.
