Best i've had was 38mpg on a full tank

On the motorway completely full, with roof box and a bike on the roof I got 43 mpg to the lake district. Coming back driving into the wind I averaged 27 mpg upset it was like driving with a massive wind brake on top.


Normal driving averages between 29 - 35.

It took around 1/2 a tank there and 3/4s a tank back upset it was a struggle to keep the thing going straight at times and struggled to speed up after 60 when driving into the wind


Not worrying about mpg, when it needs fuel, it gets fuel thumbs

I think I saw yours driving down the Hagley Road just after I got mine (late 2013)? I loved how it looked with the painted alloys snigger


On the subject of MPG, I've been doing a LOT of mixed driving in the past few months. Did Devon to Birmingham four times, easy 45 mpg (average 400 miles on a tank) trundling along at 80 with about 10 kg of 'stuff' in the car.

Urban commute gets me between 34 and 40 mpg depending on how late I am ;-) I keep track of my fuel-ups on Fuelly which has given me some useful insight...
