Chuffed with MPG :D

I drove from Kent (Sevenoaks) to Norfolk for a week, drove round that week and back to Kent which was also 400 miles on 1 tank and pulled into petrol station by my house to put more in when i got back. With me (obviously) the girlfriend, a boot full of stuff (mostly hers i must add) and some bits on the backseats. I was very surprised. Also about 70 mph motorway and normal driving around the towns with a few blips to scrare the girlfriends sister when she jumped in (she got car sick  ) haha

The TFSI engine is more suited to long journeys as it is only when it has been given chance to get up to temperature that it switches to homogenous (lean burn) mode. IIRC.

That would make sense, as my usual 5 mile journey to work results in, at best, 33-35mpg driving at a leisurely pace

Crikey, I'm surprised you manage to get anywhere near that MPG from such a short run! My computer reports about 26mpg after 5 miles, and that's if I'm lucky! I'll have to blame my lead foot.

527 miles! out of an ED30

64 ish miles per day on the M1 through the road works from Junc9 to Junc14, 50 mph speed restrictions and a short journey to get on the motorway, plus a short journey to get to work once off it. Tank lasted for 8 days.

It's VERY difficult to drive like that all the time

Derv power for the Win  

I guess doing a 72 mile round trip commute, Diesel was my only option really....but the 170 DPF shifts too best of both worlds.
