Both my Golfs modified have matched or exceeded the combined cycle routinely on runs when I've tried so I would suggest if the past vehicles are anything to go by then the combined figures or very near to it are possible. Its really dependent on journey type though.

Mpg difference between a petrol or diesel is a small % of total ownership costs once you factor in depreciation/monthly lease payments where applicable.

Tamiyoman:
Had my R over 12 months now and averages as follows:-

Urban driving 30-60mph limits 23-27mpg
Dual carriageway/Motorway steady 70mph cruise 37-38mpg
Dual carriageway/Autobahn Fast cruise (90mph) 32-34mpg
Autobahn 120mph cruise 25mpg

When you bought your MK7 i doubt people were thinking of MPG hah should of been at the back of your mind.

john87:
I see the point of achieving maximum MPG out of your car... if you owned a GTI and only achieved 25mpg average, whereas your next door neighbour managed 30mpg in the same car, surely you'd wonder why?

I bought an R32 knowing it would sound good, and have plenty overtaking ability.. but I can also achieve 33-35mpg when on the motorway. We can't drive 'balls to the wind' everywhere  :grin:
