Rover 220 Coupe Turbo

On a decent run 45ish I guess

[Toker]

polo gti with remap etc

urban <20
extra-urban sticking to NSL's 35-50 depending on slight inclines/declines etc
full boost with foot planted, around 6.5mpg

think the highest I've averaged on my regular 25 mile commute is around 43-44 (around 2 miles urban (sitting in traffic queues), 11 miles dual carriageway (70mph) and 12 miles A road (60mph)

This is the highest average I have evidence of (after said commute sticking to NSLs, roughly)

look at that dust, I better strip my car back to its chassis and detail every individual part

Misses gets around 28-30 in milton keynes which is quite impressive tbh with all the stupid rounabouts.

I manage to get half that the way I drive!

Will have to wait until I fill it to find out, after 60 miles the needle has just dropped below "1". So it's looking good so far.

Scorpio Cosworth, 220bhp 24v V6, Chipped + filter.

23mpg - used for the commute run - 5miles stop start town driving > 10 miles motorway at 70mph (give or take ) > 4 miles stop start town driving and the same on the way home - 200 miles a week. I'm a fairly "swift driver"
