But this is what makes the GTI such a good all rounder. Its great fun and pretty quick when you want it to be but also capable of being reasonably economical when you need it.

I've seen mid 40s on a decent run but my average since I bought the car in Jan is 40 which I'm more than pleased with, was getting 60 in my last car (astra h 1.7).
