From a BMW 7 Series to a Mondeo TD!

In the 8v version in my fiesta, can thrash it everywhere and still average 40-45mpg over a tank. More economic driving can see 50+ :)
Lowest I've ever got was 39mpg, at the last RR day (270 miles in total)
 
I got myself a Mondeo TDDi back in April as a general runabout. It has been OK but I find them a bit bland and noisy. It suits fine for the work run though.

It is knocking terrible when I turn right and the steering is pulling to the right. My mate os going to have a look at it tomorrow. I always said I wouldn't have another Ford after a Fiesta I had was nothing but trouble some years back.

I know you like to keep all your fuel receipts etc... so it would be interesting to know real life MPG figures for this old 1.8TD as it does get a bit of stick on here for poor economy.

My dad had to keep all his reciepts and worked out that he got 40 - 42 MPG in the old TD, in his new TDCi 130 he gets 45 - 46 MPG
 
:( One hell of a downgrade, but sounds like it was for good reason. The economy is going to seem fantastic!
