It will depend a lot on the length of your journey and your average speed.

I used to commute 5 miles (each way) average ~10mph and got ~24mpg. Trip computer would show 320 after fill up.
I now commute 40 miles (each way) average ~40mph and get ~34mpg.  Trip computer shows 420 after fill up.

This is on stock DSG GTI running super unleaded.. no v-power here :mad:

+1

I usually do short journeys less then 7 miles so only get around 19-23 MPG avg on the MFD (includes some lead foot syndrome)

Last week I did a 70 mile round trip and got around 32 MPG avg on the MFD.

I rarely got over 250 miles between fills on the ED30. At 55 litres a tank that worked out at 20.6 mpg. At £1.28 a litre that worked out at £70 a tank and £0.28 a mile.

I now drive a barge with a 2.5 ltr V6 which has a 67 ltr tank and on a tank does 450 ish miles. That is £86 a tank and £0.19 a mile - how's that work?

Edit......oops - my bad, I forgot that now I use 95 ron and the Eddie used pure Shell 99 ron at £1.38 a ltr - so that is £76 a tank and £0.30 a mile!

so in 9k miles a year I'd save £990 in fuel if I kept the barge.

God knows what the REAL world fuel consumption of a stage 2 RS3 will be :rolleye:

Must be around 22-24mpg over the past three years (it's never been reset by me!).

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

I get around 28-30mpg and struggle to get over 300miles per tank! 

But that's with a combination of granny style driving and being enthusiastic with the throttle so not too bad I think? :drinking:

I get at least 60+ mpg on every journey. Typically its about 75mpg, sometimes in good weather I can get to 85mpg.
Around 700-800 miles to a tank.
Normal driving on motorway and A roads, sticking to speed limits as and when I can!

lol - Yes, its not a GTI. Its a MK5 Bluemotion - not very fun to drive, and I do miss my ED30 - but loving the savings!!
