Nearly 1800 miles in and getting 29mpg. Dropped from 31 mpg to 29mpg over winter. I’m sure it will go back up again now the weather is improving ?

Tuesday night mine was at 7 mpg when I picked it up with 7 miles on it, i’ve now done 125 miles and it says 25mpg, so I reckon if you forget the first gallon in 7 miles it has used 4 gallons in the last 118 miles so will be 29.5 mpg !! thats what I’m hoping, been varying the speed and load, no motorway cruising and not been over 4000rpm and about half throttle yet… loving it loving it loving it

No nothing.

No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

No tackiness.

Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

Innit?

Wow, I did my first 1600 miles before I reset the clocks (after oil change) and was averaging 23MPG but that was only after my 350 mile round trip to York on a weekend. averaging 21.4 before that. Seen some people getting up closer to 30MPG, do you all do a lot of motorway driving as 90% of mine is town/city driving.
