| Shropshire UK | 46.8 mpg GPS 1.9 MJet Just completed a 440 mile+ round trip, 4 up with luggage, down to Croyde Bay over the Bank Hol. The GPS performed fantastically, no problems whatsoever. Average consumption was 46.8 mpg. Now this was Bank Holiday, with heavy traffic, stop start stuff, 70 mph "where I could" and running about those country lanes between Croyde and Woolacombe / Ilfracombe. ![]() 27,000 miles on the clock now Rock on the MJet GPS!

But I wouldnt have got mine for £9,500 with 1,500 miles on the clock then tho... And maybe I got a good chassis.... its more capable than I am in corners anyhow... Driven normally, its not a Hothatch remember...

| Pirates > Ninjas | Re: 46.8 mpg GPS 1.9 MJet Not particularly impressed by Diesel economy like....considering my petrol 16v manages at least 45 on a similar sort of run with 47 being the max I've had although I'll admit my week to week economy is more like 40mpg but I do like to visit the redline.... | ||
