While we're all (ok, not all of us!

) interested in consumption, it's not really the overriding issue to be focusing on in a GTi...
FYI, I can quite easily eek out a long-term average of about 29 mpg; These are cold start, short runs, which are 100% urban, at approx 2.5 miles per day during the week... Weekend is fun time

But seriously, if all you are doing is watching the gauge head south, the GTi ain't for you. To be fair though, for the output and what it is, it really isn't that bad.
Anyway, petrol is a finite resource, better enjoy it while it's here!
