What's your best average MPG...?

Postby Barney Gumball » Thu Oct 01, 2009 4:24 pm

Hi,

I've just purchased an 08 Megane Dynamique DCI 106 from Renault Manchester and she's BRILLIANT :-) !

I live on the Wirral and work in Manchester which is about an eighty mile round trip every day.

I'm up to 53.1 average MPG which is LOADS better than my old 99 Laguna Executive 2.0 was (32.1 average MPG)

What's your best average MPG in similar cars...?

I'm driving her like Miss Daisy to get the best average MPG I can... yes I'm the fella doing 56 MPH in the slow lane on the M62 annoying the HGV's because they cant get past me :-) !

Hope to hear from you soon.

That's BRILLIANT Sav0 :-) !

If I get up to 60 average MPG I'll be well pleased.

My miles are split about equal between motorway and town driving.

If I remember the best average I had out of my Megane 1.5dCi 100 was 66mpg down in Norfolk.

The wife's first Clio dCi 80 would regularly get into the low 70's when driven gently, her current dCi 86 seems to hover around 58-59mpg knocking around town and low to mid 60's on longer runs, and my Laguna 2.0dCi 150 acheived 54.3mpg on a run down to Bridgenorth and back last week end.

:D

I have a 2004 1.5 dci and travel from manchester to liverpool daily for work. The trip computer is currently showing 74.5mpg.

How accurate the mpg on the trip computer is i'm not sure but wow!
