oh and welcome by the way! Hope you come back with your black one and stay for a while

[stevenrsturbo]

Black one ?? lol
i have another blue mk1 and wife has other dandelion mk1 but no black one, (YET)
lol

well ebay auction ended. AND !!!!

:-0 :-0 :-0

£1020 WTF !!!

thats ridiculous,
i ve watched a couple of right rough 180s finish on ebay last few days for between 1150-1450 so thought my low low reserve of 1600 would be easily met but really wanted at least 1900 and expected around 2200,, i m shocked , i might relist but just in shocked still.

[Maxxed_Ross]

sorry I read "mk1 back on the road" as "black mk1 on the road"

my mistake lol

It had been a long day

[vinny1979]

nearly 40 mpg. wow must be a 2.5 v6 diesel. 395 miles on a 40 litre tank. sorry buts thats impossible. for one its a 55 litre tank my current one and previous zeds have only returned around 210-220 miles on a full tank

My 180 done about 38-39 mpg during the summer so it is possible

[afcbadam]

395 miles to 40 litres is 45mpg - impossible for a v6

[stevenrsturbo]

well filled up yesterday to go to scotland, was deep in red, £53.02 , so that would be 58-59 litres ?? 12.9 gallons ish. i returned around 41 mpg, on my journey, sat 70 on motorway (90% of journey) and 60 majority of rest. so how is that not possible, if your zed returns less, then i suggest checking air flow sensor, lambda or thermostat*(it may be stuck open), i return almost as good as mpg as you claim from your zed in my 450bhp+ Sti impreza.

just because tank is 10 gallon, and lines etc, doesnt mean zed only hold s 10 gallons, almost 13, so do the maths,


Car now sold, thanks all

[afcbadam]

on my 3rd one so dont think they were all broken!! all have returned the same mpg. i must say i do have a heavy foot some times. can a thermostat cause bad mpg by the way. air flow and lamba should be ok it passed its mot on saturday

[arwilson80]

Getting a consistent 280-290 miles to the tank in mine at the moment.

41mpg in a 2.5 V6 way off somewhere... My dad and lil bro both have 1.4's and they are just about getting 40-41mpg.

On a long run in my KV6 I wasn't far off 40mpg. Was driving like a nun though :) I tend to get about 40-50 miles for £10 now, whatever that works out as.

I've done it. Not impossible but very very difficult. You need t be super smooth with the throttle

[vinny1979]

sadly not sold to me, so still looking, open to mk1 s now, come on guys?!!

a bad thermostat, as in one that is jammed open is the biggest culprit of bad mpg, as the thermostat is open all cooling systems work harder and a car uses stupid amounts of petrol, i simply wouldnt own a zed if i got 210 miles from a tank, that would be under 18mog ?? as said my heavily tuned impreza does more than that.

[stamford]

ONCE!......:D.......I managed approximately 420 miles, that was on holiday and I honestly cannot state how I did it!

My average is around the 320 miles to a tankful and that includes commuting and spirited driving ;)

[stevelou5]

I travel really really really far to work about 7 miles!!! a day :-) lol, all running about the streets and I get about 410 - 420 miles to a tank. I think if I went on a good run I would get 500 + to a tank. When I bought me car down in liverpool coming back to newcastle got 150 miles before the needle moved off full! (no it wasn't broken lol)

Diesel Power!!!! :-)
