rubbish fuel economy...

went to bradford last night to collect some parts, and just worked out my MPG for the trip:

200 miles on 45 litres = 19mpg

its only a 20SEH as well, standard apart from a 4 brancher!


grrrrrrrr

Imagine having to pay that for a 1.4, then you will feel my pain

Right, you seem to have forgot that you already had 116miles on the clock when we set off, and had 3/4 of a tank of fuel left, your car holds about 50litres I would guess so we would say you did more like 320miles on 50 litres which is 29mpg

[Spo0ler]

even so my vec did 42 on a good run and i thought that was crap compared to the GTE
