How is the fuel economy of the standard GTI v Clubsport so different - I only just get over 300 miles from a tank, and that''s based upon a 40 mile each way relatively gentle commute, on VMax/Momentum...
The Clubsport has a slightly detuned R engine not the regular GTI engine.
The GTI has a small quick spooling turbo in a soft state of tune that will happily run on 95RON.
The CS/R engine likes to drink fuel and needs high octane stuff.
