| Re: MPG--What are you seeing on you vRS Yea, sounds about right. 35-43mpg on a 60-80mph run, as little as 7-8mpg hooning it. |

| Re: MPG--What are you seeing on you vRS On a full journey consisting of mainly motorways and a few A-roads i'm generally seeing an average of 33mpg. But i do hoon it on the motorway so i recon i could improve it if i was less impatient. On the current mpg gauge i see about 25mpg when speeding on the motorway (105ish), but when i drop down to 70mph it goes up to around 40mpg.

| Re: MPG--What are you seeing on you vRS first half hour of my commute around 35-37 (motorway) then last 15mins usally drops to about 28mpg all roundabouts and short sprints between them. going to manchester and back last weekend avg about 35 with fast pace up there and easy going on way back. can get about 40 on long run if im patient. ill see what i get on way to oban this xmas. but so far its the same as my old vectra and the tanks smaller. (why did they put such a small tank in!)

| Re: MPG--What are you seeing on you vRS Mines gone down lately, got a promotion and am based somewhere else now. So instead of 60mph + 80mph roads I have alot more 40s/30s and two massive hills with dual carrageways which I just can't help but floor it up!!!! Especially when someone is right on my bumper thinking he can take the mighty skoda! ![]() |
