** Official Fuelly Thread - Post your MPG **

[The_Abyss]

For the last 48,000 or so (I reset the computer when I bought it), my Focus 05 2.0 TDCI has been getting 48.4 mpg. And this after a little Bluefinning about 20,000 miles in.

These days though, I only really drive on the motorway (Ipswich to Brighton and back), and use a bike for the daily commute. My old 125 used to get around 70 mpg, but the new ER-6F 650cc gets around 45 mpg. I'm still getting used to it though, and am a bit wrist happy.

Never once claimed 39mpg is a realistic day to day average - it was a one trip figure on a 300 mile Motorway journey

That's because you drive like a grandad

Same as what my spreadsheet tells me, but in a slightly nicer layout, with more stats.

Will hopefully improve now I've put a new exhaust on and serviced it...

Very low 20's for my Subaru Legacy GTB. But then, petrol is about 70p a litre here so I use that excuse to keep the wife mollified

I currently get 31 mpg "Cons 1" reading from the OBC in my 328i Auto which i drive with a relative lead foot, 27MPG showing on "Cons 2" that I have not reset since I bought the car.

Where's R420 what'shisname when you need him wasn't he quoting 2-3mpg the other week?

Scania R420. 2.5 MPG

DAF 95XF 410 6.9MPG

Just done a run from Aberdeen to the Galloway Hills (Merrick Stages Rally) and back, just squeezed 30MPG out of my Land Rover Discovery (300TDi)

 

[jigger]

Not much or is that

 

[mr tommo]

29.7mpg over the last 4000 miles

Not that anybody believes me of course when I tell them my 3.0i BMW averages that kind of figure.

Fox must use magic petrol, because no other 6cyl BMW owner gets the 39mpg that he supposedly gets

Those are US gallons. Convert it to UK MPG and the numbers will be higher.


Speaking of which, Overlag and StevenG, how have you got it working in £ and UK MPG?

Signed up but still have half a tank left at the moment.

Well i just got from my trip around the country which covered 1100miles of all types of road, plenty of motorways, A roads, city driving and mountain climbs in my Suzuki swift 1.5 petrol. I got roughly 50mpg but that's because i really did drive very carefully everywhere! Literally sat at 65mph on the motorways possibly creeping upto 75 if i was feeling fruity. Im actually still unsure whether the tedium was worth it all or if i should have just thought sod it and taken the MR2 and blatted it everywhere instead

No, I drove at the speed limit unlike those in little engined 3 series with something to prove

Should be getting a little more out of my lil' Cheapo 206.

- 95% Motorway driving 98 Miles every weekday.

 

[Lashout_UK]

I'm averaging about 30mpg from full to empty doing relatively mixed driving at the moment, in my 1994 525i SE, with a 5 speed manual Fair few high speed blats in there as well.

Sounds like you live on a motorway service area!

 

[borich_planner]

My BMW 118D does around town 45mpg and on motorway driving at 80-85mph does around 55mpg and I can get up to 65mpg if i drop to 60mph.
