It's about the same on mine. I always moan when I get stuck behind lorries doing 50mph for a long time but it's the only time I get fuel economy in the magic 30's!
On a 50 mile journey (mostly m'way) seen just over 40mpg from my golf 1.8T with a jabba custom map. Was doing mostly round about 80mph but sticking quite close behine all the other traffic. (Slipstreaming) Was a bit naughty but you would be supprised the amount of difference it makes!
The most i've had out of my 2ltr is 47.9 on a steady 200 mile
journey. Average around town 20-25mpg. Normal average when
booting on the motorway 30-36mpg
55 pence a litre [:O] when did you start driving man??
I've only passed and it makes me cry when i put a tenner in to my corsa
only get about 60 thats if i drive sensibly aswell, but thats a rare
occasion when im driving like a granny im lucky to get 45-50 miles on a
tenner.
Also the corsa's a one litre [:$]
give me a year or so and il hopefully on to a bigger engined golf or may just have sonnys if he decides to get a new car []

How come you only get 60miles out of a tenner in a 1 litre corsa?? Either fuel must be extremely expensive or your car is very inefficient. I get 60 miles from a tenner in my 2.3 litre V5. I don't feel so bad about my fuel economy now
well i have to say im 90% using high revs just to keep up with normal cars as its such a slow car so thats why i think that my fuel consumption suffers.
