Your fuel range

[rich83]

The most I've had is 35mpg but my island is 9x5 miles and top speed of 40mph lol

Hope this doesn't sound like a silly question but does a remap help?

Guernsey by any chance?

Jersey.

There is a edition 30 on Jersey.

There's about 6 ED30's in jersey but one very low mileage at 7800 for sale £12999

I never fill up for than £25 per week an that enough to keep me ticking over at around half a tank so I dont know what my range around town is tbh

On the motorway I do 300 mile round trips at around 80 miles and still have around 70-80 miles ranges left according to the computer which I find quite accurate.

Although given this weather Ive been doing 90mph on the same trip and returning the same fuel efficiency

Im sure I can reach well north of 450miles if i drive with an already warm engine on a nice day at 60mph- Ive managed 43.6mpg on such a short trip with the reading still increasing but i dont plan on doing that style of driving for a very long time. it was one of those finished work cant be bothered, just cruise and listen to some good music!

Bog standard GTi, 32 miles each way daily to work and back, each way had 25 miles of 30,40&50mph zones and the rest is a 70 limit, approx 360 per tank, averages 32-38mpg dependent on traffic (tractors etc)

[th3_f15t]

I get an average of about 350 miles per tank of fuel, lately been seeing 40+ mpg on my read out.

Interestingly, I get more miles out of a tank from Esso Supreme unleaded. Used to use Tesco Momentum but the Esso fuel feels better and seems to correlate with my higher miles per tank.

I got 18.6 mpg on an 8 mile round trip within West London today. Traffic was so shoite that i got beyond giving a fig about mpg so boosted up to 30mph in 2nd & 3rd gear whenever i could on the return leg - let the turbo stretch its legs a little       

the way i saw it, without the moments of amusement on the way back, i could have maybe achieved 24 mpg on an utterly feckless journey better suited to a 1 litre sh*ttybox but i have a GTI and i'm going to use her dagnabit! 

[th3_f15t]

I want to argue you and say that you don't need to boot it all the time...

But I can't. Nothing beats a bit of turbo kick.

Agreed! If the engines warmed up and the roads clear might as well have some fun

Best I've ever had is 48mpg on my way to work which is 13 mile trip, I get 42mpg daily on that same journey.

Fuel consumption doesn't really bother me as it's not why I bought the car but it's nice to know that on a steady drive to work I can get those figures.

LOL ^ Si 

Not a GTI, but I've got GTI/Ed30 power.

Usual range in winter is around 510 miles. Summer, goes up to 580-600 on mixed easy going driving.
Nurburgring run saw 720 miles to a tank, 59.7 mpg average for that tank.

I was on track at Bedford last week and I averaged between 17-29 mpg between warm/cold laps. Used a smidgen under half a tank for around 34 laps in total.

Sounded alright too, I can't complain on the black pumps

[ED30 Fish]

What do you drive Pete?

I can get 400 miles out of my mk4 r32, although my work commute is mostly motorway miles.

Getting my ED30 next week and I was hoping to get a few more from the tank...

[Tfsi_Mike]

I've just brimmed it, not using it till Thursday. Bet it's empty by Thursday night
