(G) Woo Hoo..... 51 MPG to-day

put my dualogic in E mode on the way home (mixed speeds) not holding back either and after 15 miles 51.4 mpg thats more like it Oscar ma man!!!

The OBC keeps teasing me telling me that my range after I fill it up is over 400 miles

current mileage is 1850

nice 1 i cant seem to get over 46.6 mpg

E mode on my dualogic makes the gearbox change quicker try changing your gears quicker

My last tank was 53.5mpg

In the last month I have rented two different 1.4 Sport 500's, driven 270 miles and back from devon to Leicestershire and achieved about 50mpg average. Most of the journey was motorway driving so I was very impressed. Both cars were virtually new when I started off so I assume that as the engines loosen up in a couple of thousand miles the average mpg should increase a little.

The joy of a manual. Mine is now regularly at 65mpg plus at just over 3000 miles. I have the dealer demo home tonight, mine is in for its front spoiler to be fitted. When I picked it up it was on an average of 50mpg. Someone's been driving it like its been stolen!!

Its now at 60 mpg.

what is dualogic

The automatic transmission option.

Wasn't that far off on the trip to the docks with my 1.2

I can only presume my MJ Panda was stolen. The last figure on the trip computer was 40 miles to the gallon.....serioulsy.

when you say change quicker do you mean at lower revs or physicaly faster gear to gear..
just for a bit of fun what is the worst mpg you have had from a car!! my old bmw 535i sport would do 8mpg if you made it angry

I'd say he means that it's short shifting. IE Changing up earlier. Short shifting is good for your economy but don't go changing up to 5th and drive around town at 20. That's not so good for your economy

Whilst on holiday a while back we hired a ford Expedition H U G E!! SUV. Anyway my friend noticed it had an instant MPG figure in thr over head console we then spent the rest of the day blasting between lights best I did was 2.8 mpg

I had an Opel Senator back in the mid 80s. 4 mpg on the trip if it was 'exercised'
