I really thought I'd be pushing 40mpg, but my main motivation for chopping in the Cupra Born for this was so my monthly(ish) commute to MK doesn't involve having to stop every 1.5 to 2 hours for a 40 minute wait to recharge, at a cost of 25p a mile. Winter motorway range on EVs is truly sh!te. Look forward to the car ticking over 620 miles (1000 km) when it unlocks most, if not all the output.
I reckon on a steady run down to MK you’ll manage 40mpg reasonably easily unless you’re really tanking on.
My lad’s 2021 A3 doesn’t suffer bongs like my Golf does. He gets occasional reboots of the media unit on the fly for no apparent reason but that’s about all.
Very nice 
My car is awaiting collected at port. I will wait until 1st May now.
Not long to wait, at nearly £600 a year for road tax I can see why!
