Ello Boys and Girls

Just thought I would introduce myself ;) I have just brought on Xmas eve a 2Lt VVTi and must say I am liking it :-)

I had a Leon Cupra Tdi that i loved to bits but she had to go due to the insurance being sky high if i put my GF on it and also as i have just brought a house!

So.... That’s me :-P

Hope to speak to you all soon.

Pacey

P.S What average MPG do people get on there 2LT VVTi as mine seems to be on the low side L

L O :D

Welcome along.

MPG: mid 30's I would expect depending on how you drive it?

I'm a Diesel-ite so not the best to comment on that, but I bet you will miss the lowdown grunt and economy of your Tdi Leon :(

Hi,

Well done choosing a 2.0 VVT - It seems to be a pretty exclusive club, I've only ever come across around 4 other 2.0 Méganes.

My average is usually 30-31 MPG, but recently I've stopped using motorways so much and it's down to 28 MPG. But I don't drive it like a granda, I always use the full 136 BHP to race away from the lights. I've owned it for a year now and never had less than 28 MPG, even when I really push it.

Perhaps it could do with a service? Air filter change?
Ottoman Blue 2.0 VVT Privilège 5 Door - Full beige leather, ESP, Xenon headlights, Carminat Navigation, Cruise etc.
Ink Blue 2.0 VVT Dynamique 3 Door... Black Leather, heated seats, panoramic sunroof, tyre pressure sensors, Hands Free etc.

Thanks!

Yer does seem to be very exclusive! Air filter change sound like a gd idea! Will check that at the weekend! Any that you would recommend? Don't normally drive like a granddad lol ;) just it seems so so under powered :( :cry
