I can get to 45mpg but after a while the lead in my foot gets heavier. :woot: Ive averaged 36 in the last few months.

Nope, got 46 on way home. It's one of the older diesels (2002) so it's not as efficent as the new ones.

Missus has a Panda 1.3 Multijet. Takes £30 to fill it up and the last brim to brim measurement confirms 65mpg. Which was nice. Just filled up at Sainsburys in Mansfield, paid 109.6p, in Worksop its 111.9p. I am considering buying a 'ped :thumbdown:

1.18 here for diesel, and driving the l200 all over the country racing isn't cheap. Worst part is, there are refineries all round here:o:mad:

Durham to epsom (surrey) and back yesterday the 406 did about 48mpg @ a steady 80.

300 mile each way and still 100 mile left in the tank:thumbsup:

I get 48 MPG on long runs out of the Audi, (170BHP 2ltr Diesel). 45MPG round town. Average approx 515miles, out of a £50 tank of fuel.

With the extra BHP, quick and good MPG... Shame you still get the black smoke :)

Paul you have it so wrong, the black smoke is cool!

Line up your victim after some steady, smooth, efficient driving and then bury the throttle. I have managed to almost obscure the view of the car behind when looking in my rear view mirror. Its a good way to get your own back on bad driving!!!

Cheers Matt..

I shall remember that for the future.

I remember when I first got the car, after 5K I had to top up the oil.. And it's been pretty much the same since. I thought something was wrong, but the tech guy's at Audi said that's good, and they have seen a lot worse!

My Focus, never even pulled the dipstick out in 90K!!!!
