MPG thread
I know everyone is curious about their / others MPG so.... i thought why not put them all in here. :)
I worked out mine this morning and was surprised the figure i got. I had been getting about 25.5 MPG for a long time but i changed the oil 2 weeks ago and i'm getting... 28.69! :mml: That's Dual carriageway / Motorway driving sitting at 3.5 - 3.75k RPM :sneaky: Standard ZS 180 |
54mpg doing about 1/3 town driving and 2/3 motorway.
Lightly modified ZS115 Diesel which is still for sale by the way LOL |
Ive only worked out my MPG twice since owning the 180. First time I got 32mpg second time I got 25mpg. Must be down to varied driving, as its pretty much all B road miles.
I could have worked it out again today but didnt want to fork out £50 cash as I needed some to pay for tyre fitting today (I thought it would need allignment too, but no). |
wish i had my zs back now ....
my st is stuck at about 18mpg but when i went on silverstone last weekend at ford fair it was 10.2 mpg as i re set the computer before taking her out it was driven at full ANGER though and was so much fun i had 68 miles of fuel when i entered the track and 15-20 mins later had 3 miles left just got to the garage to fill up with 0 miles left showing on the clock |

I really don't want to know! It scares me :laugh:
However, I did get a quote this morning for an LPG conversion out of curiosity.................just over £2200 all in. |
I'd be scared to find out...specially when I'm hooning it...considering you can almost watch the gauge go down...then calm down and watch it go backup :smile2:
I would guess on average around town i get 20 - 25. On a motorway high 20's and country lanes....lets not go there ;) |
I got mine down to 17 MPG on B / C roads. ;)
|
i get 38mpg out of mine
|

Since prices went over the pound barrier I have been really taking my time, with 3 trips to London not excedding 60mph.
My trip computer shows 990 miles and I have used around 22 gallons of fuel, which equals 45mpg! :thumbsup: Shows what the ZS can do! Reckon it could hit 50 with an empty car and some coasting! |

I could make £60 last a month. All i have to do is have it parked in the garage. |
mines made 35 mpg the other week, i was well chuffed:punk:
|

|

190miles from a FULL TANK :huh: about 21-24mpg i suppose....
according to my scanguage.....foot flat down...9mpg!! :thumbsup::mml: ha ha!! excellent ah? hence....the diesel vectra lol |
I normally get about 300 miles out of a tank and that's just before the red.... that's damn good I recon
got 430 miles out of a tank coming back from the yorkshire modified show last summer - and that was even after doing some fast speeds edit :- ahem Ross |
can get around 45 on the motorways, 38ish when driving to work and back on the B roads. - tho shes only a 110.
|
Filled up today. Put £33 in and covered 206 miles from my last fill - worked out to 25mpg. Not bad considering I overtake just about everyone I come across on my local B road haunts!

I get 4 days (maybe 5 if i drive very economically) out of a full tank. |
i dont drive that far in it TBH to work and back maybe and the odd blast at the weekend thats it
id say i do about 80 odd miles a week in it thats it |
I get somewhere around 25mpg out of my current ZS180. My old green one used to do around 29mpg on the run back and forth the Hemel Hempstead. In those days I was filling up every other day. I managed to get that car down to single figures, though, on trackdays.
|
Mine has not been filled for about 1.5 months that must mean i am getting 100+mpg ;)
Actually is cos it has been parked up with a suspect HG from putting in too much fuel with out the air to burn it... d'oh , but soon to go away and be fixed and back to have some fun... According to scanguage full throttle instant reading is now in petrol territory of 2MPL or about 9mpg :D Before i made major changes to it it was a 115 and i would get 38-55mpg depending on how eager i was to get to various locations... |
50 plus mpg :w00t:
|
Just filled up tonight and worked out the MPG for this week....
29.4????? MPG. I 'blame' all this nice cold air letting the fuel burn more efficiently. |
At a constant (if not frustrating and boring 60mph) from newcastle to torquay.....41mpg :)
Still got the piece of paper my wife did the calculations on too! |
I have been travelling to Wimbledon from Watford (60 miles return) every day recently and getting through about £12 in fuel per day. Did the journey in my wife's rover mini the other day and only used £6 in fuel. Think that's about 20mpg for the ZS and 40 for the mini.
