I am thinking about changing my 1.6 for an abarth. The only thing that is stopping me at the moment is the difference in MPG. How many miles do you tend to get out of a full tank of petrol. Obviously it depends on driving style etc but I just want an idea.


Cheers
 
Not being funny or anything but if you're concerned with fuel costs don't buy an abarth! ;) Get a JTD. Buying an abarth isn't really about how much you get to a tank of fuel, it's about the ownership experience( sounds conceted I know! :eek: ) Just for the record I average around 28mpg but that's mainly commuting on a dual carriageway & backlanes. (y)
 
Yeah, forget the Abarth if you have any worries about fuel consumption, that's for sure!

It now costs me virtually £50 to fill the tank and lasts about 3 days :D Does an average of @29mpg on a combined cycle (80% motorway/A road & 20% town type driving)

If you can afford the fuel you won't regret it (y)
 
I average at about 22 MPG... but that is mainly because I get in the car and drive it hard... :devil:
Oh, that includes mainly motorway driving, if I stay off the motorway, I get more than 26 MPG.
 
If your bothered about fuel prices. buy a JTD and the money you save with the group 5 insurance in comparison to the group 14 / 15 of the abarth get a remap.

Then puts you in abarth territory cheaply and with good economy.
 
About 24mpg in town - much less ie 18 mpg with the aircon. Up to 30mpg on motorways even at "higher" speeds when steadily cruising. Need a mortgage to fill her soon but it's damn well worth it. :D
 
i get 30 mpg on the motorway cruising at around 80 mph
and i dont like to think about what it does round town tbh!!
