View Full Version : MPG figures for a 120
I'm in a dilema wether to get a cheap run around until a Mk2 ZS diesel turns up with the 180 body kit or get a 120 with the body kit as there's a few on the trader.
I was just wondering what MPG you 120 owners are getting?

i have a 180 and get around 23-25 mpg i think about 260 miles to a whole tank. i would be interested to know what both the diesel and 120 get

I have a 180 i can get 27 to 30 mpg if i dont rev over 3grand but thats hard so i would say around the 25 mark to be more realistic

i have a mk1 120 & if driven fairly easy i get around 40-45mpg. pretty good considering its a 1.8!
I normally get 35mpg out of mine that two A road runs of a 100 miles each and 150 miles of mixed mostly town driving. The best I ve had is 450 out of a tank (41.2mpg).

Cheers for changing the title.
I'm surprised at the how high the mpg figure is for the 120, as i was getting 45 out of my derv:)
All i need to do now is decide to get a 120 now or a crap rn around and wait for a derv:ninja:

On a recent run to scotland and back, around 1000 miles, I averaged 47.5 mpg.
Had nearly 500 out of a tank once but if I want to enjoy the car then it drops dramatically to the low 30's and around 320 to a tank.
I imagine if you drive a diesel economically you could reach neaer 60mpg.
Haven't you already got a ZS TD Gazza?
Average out of my 120 is 35-40mpg on a long motorway speeds run. 30mpg if you're lucky around town. Lowest I've run the tank was 370 miles. The light was on and I was bricking it looking for a garage. Mind you, I started off with the tank brimming.
