Sure you aint still doing starts like the one at GTI International? [)] Revving the knackers off it and slipping the clutch wont help []

 

[dubzter]

don't know cause I'm enjoying driving too much I don't pay attention. i drive it until it tells me it wants more

Best.... 360...

Worst about 200 []

 

[Tom R32]

I got 325 when in a week I spent in traffic - the car never got over 4k rpm in the 30 miles to and 30 miles from work. Normal is 250 ish.

 

[Golfgirl]

Highest = 345

Lowest = 220

Normally get around 280-300

 

[Royster]

usually 240-260 at all times.. hmmm..

 

[sutherlandm]

Usually about 300ish.

Best is also 325, not sure what the worst is - I rend not to look when I'm ragging it.

Drive an Evo and you get about 150!!

Hmmmm....I would have thought the 4Mo would have slightly better fuel economy than the R32, but I struggle to make my tank last more than about 275 miles... Perhaps I'm a bit too heavy footed!

 

[sutherlandm]

The R32 may be more efficient with it's variable length and timing thingummies?

The 4Mo has VVT too y'know! []

 

[sutherlandm]

...but it doesn't have the "Power Rangers" plastic cover on it.

That saves at least 3mpg.

 

[spanner]

Best was 367 miles and I ended up putting 63 litres of fuel back into the car - therefore it was about as empty as it can be.

Worst 240 - that hurt....but was fun []

 

[Tom R32]

Whats the most expensive fill up we have had then? Mine was ?54.50 (optimax) quite a pinch for a Golf!!!

 

[spanner]

A shade over ?56 for the 63 litre fill up.

Felt like crying.

 

[zUgan]

4mo figures...

Most out of a tank: 415miles/tank (Optimax)! Can't get anywhere near that at the moment! []

 

[sutherlandm]

Just under ?600 in the in laws boat. Twin 330bhp engines.

And that was RED diesel!!!

?65 in the Landcruiser Amazon.

?51 in mine (I use 95 RON as I'm not fooled by the marketing ploy that is "premium" fuels...!)
