I use to get 34mpg normal conditions, bit of boot sometimes

Got 41mpg when I changed at 2000 revs, that was a full tank over a mixture of driving

I did mainly country roads

i do average about 60 miles a week through country roads/town centers and main roads.

I use momentum 99 i can drivelike a granny mixing it up with a bit of boy racer and i get on average 32mpg all in a week.

I fill up once a week £40 for a full tank.

I must be a really hard driver!!! Lol I only do 3 miles to work tho and come home again on my dinner so 12 miles a day in 3 mile runs which don't help!!! Engine hardly gets warm, I try not to rag it but sometimes it can't be helped anyway averaging 29mpg not brill but truthfully many 2.0 cars are about the same!!!

2,500 rpm is best for fuel economy on a motorway, anything slower and ur actually using more fuel than u need!!!

So you can't fill up 40£ and only do 60miles

Buy an oil burner my friends!!!!!

You can't own an ST and worry about MPG. Just drive like you normally would and enjoy owning what will become a legendary Ford in the years to come!

ST = Seriously Thirsty.
