Can you better this mpg?

[am1w]

On my way home from work today, the trip computer on the car produced the following results:

Journey = 9 miles
Time = 1 hr 3 mins
Average speed = 9 mph
Average mpg = 17.7

So pleased with this.

worthwhile owning a GTi then .  NOT

Chuff: I feel blessed. 

It's not the cost that annoys me, it's being hoodwinked by the official figures.

Oh, my dealership's Warranty Manager has moved into my street, 10 doors down. Now how weird is that? She is rather lovely.  

Natural balance, sort of, has been attained.

I had an Evo 6 that returned low ninteys to a tankfull 

Fun though

Aye, I used to see this type of mpg at a steady 70mph from a RX8. Having just come from a diesel I guess it's easy to focus on the running costs, IMHO it's always the depreciation that's the killer, I think we are well placed with the VAG (even though its feels like someone has put your testicles in a vice when you visit the pumps).

Easy, 55 litres in 8 laps of the Nurburgring and sprint GP circuit = 118 miles/12 gallons = 9.8 mpg over a full tank

Although mine was in the slightly less efficient MKV TFSI 

Lifetime average over the time I had the car was 18.7mpg.

So far my 1year and 2 month avarage is 20.4 mpg. Charming, I say!
