GTI Fuel Range?
« on: 28 March 2007, 16:44 »
What kind of fuel range are you guys getting out of your GTI's?? I guess I'm looking for Miles / Litres (ultimately MPG obviously)

Sorry this is a little dull!

360 miles per tank of super unleaded with about 20-30 'miles' of showing.

Seems to be averaging 34mpg on a mixed run.

Around town, mid to high 20's. 'A' roads low 30's. Motorways anything up to 35-36 with cruise. Low fuel (40 miles to go) warning usually comes on around 380 miles.

380 does sound loads.

Well I'm going to be anal and keep a history of fuel tank fill ups. Actually having written that and re-read it, mybe I won't, I'm turning into a real dull idot!!  :grin:

Ok, back in the fast lane - I had a little play last night against my friend in his Type R. The ED30 don't half go! in 200 metres my trip fuel went from showing 340 miles to empty to 300!!!
