Miles per tank?

[Snoopy]

I averaged 30mpg for the last tank full. all commute nothing more.
My journey into work is quite early so i can average by the computer near 37 but on the way home its rush hour hell and were all fighting for a place on the bridges back over the tyne so mpg takes a huge dive.

When I leave work, my mpg for the first 3 miles on the Euston/Marylebone Road is 11 mpg in stop/start traffic at an average speed of 9 mph! Then I hit the Westway (A40), give it some wellie, do 50+++mph and it rises to 22 mpg.
Eventually, by the time I reach home 8 miles and 35-40 mins later from the start of my miserable journey, I am getting 25 mpg!
But this is way, way better than the vile underground and is worth it IMO.
I just love Wolfgang to bits as he gives me a smile after a very hard days grind!
And that's what life is all about!

I know just what you mean.

Take Wolfgang (brilliant name) out for a leisurely spin in the sticks and see what you get then, I'm sure he'll enjoy it too.

And with Bluefin, it would have be even more fun!
You never know, it might still happen.
Living is a risk, so a small one like a re-map should not be the cause of a stress attack!

This morning to and from and about town - mix of 30\40 and 50mph roads got av of 34mpg on the computer.
Have just done run to B&Q by manchester which was a short trip to motorway on A road then about 20mins om motorway - 39mpg.
I did a longer motorway to reading at about 23:00 the other week so bugger all traffic and tootled at about 60 mpg when at the tail end of running it in and the computer to show an ave of just a tad over 40mpg which was cool (never expected to see that!).

One point is that you can inadvertantly manipulate the figures by how you control taking foot of the gas when down hill \ slowing to a stop etc as then the current mpg can hit 70-100mpg which will impact the ave mpg figure - so give you a higher reading. So guess the ave mpg reading comes down to how you drive. But - in real terms using the push button reset tip - getting 400+ miles from a tank seems nuts and would need a very very

99RON, manual, remap and driving like a Granny for 24 miles.

Gives the GTD boys something to think about

It was a very painful experience though...

I agree.. but the flexibility of this new 2.0 turbo never ceases to amaze me. Nearly 50mpg one minute.. 9mpg the next
