I apologize if this is already been covered. Did a quick search. Can only search for key words as my tablet goes funny when I try and pull down the model selection and came back with 40 pages.
Normally I get somewhere between 58 to 66 mpg mixed driving. Did get over 70 once but that was because the wind changed direction and pushed me there and back. Fairly consistent at around 62 per £10 of fuel. Hopefully it will be a bit more now I have fixed the stuck open thermostat.
Obviously keep an eye on tire pressures.
Wonder what driving strategies work best.
My 1.2 seems quite happy sitting at 30mpg In fifth gear but fourth doesn't seem to make any difference anyone spotted any difference.
What on average is the most economical speed. I don't see any difference between 52ish and 58ish above 60 I see a drop.
Going down hill sometimes as soon as you take your accelerator it instantly goes to 142mpg other times there is quite a delay why??
Is it better to speed up going down hill and coast uphill.
Are there any mods other than thinner oil. Not good for the engine.
I find on flat roads and traffic permitting that slowly increasing my speed then decreasing slowly on average gives slightly more MPG than a constant speed. I only talking 5mph up and down.
