05 Mk2 180 MPG
 

Just filled up .... after 231 miles of urban/short/highish revving driving on Morrisons unleaded !!!.... filled up and put in 40L of Morrison which I reckon is 8.8 gallons ... so 26.25 mpg
I'm happy ....... views?

About right mate ....

deal with this and you could gain upto an additional 2.25 mpg. but then on a down side you do lose the self satisfied grin :noexpression:

not bad, just got 375 out of my last tank though ;)

I never believed supermarket fuel was different to ordinary petrol station fuel, but dont often get the supermarket fuel.

Other day got a voucher for 5p off a litre of Sainsburys fuel, so went and filled the Punto up. Its a 16v 1.2 Dynamic, always nippy little thing.

With the Sainsburys fuel, it felt flat and didnt want to rev, I was wondering if the plugs needed doing as I havnt touched the engine apart from oil and filter changes.

Any way filled up where I usually do and all was well again, can only put it down to the Sainsburys fuel!!!!

Just wondered if you would get less mpg from the supermarket fill ups.

Personally I don't think there is any difference Peter, tankers go to the refinery and get filled, they don't have a supermarket crappy fuel point, I've tried running on Shell Vpower and Sainsburys super unleaded, I couldn't tell any difference between them tbh.

Agree Pete, thats what I always thought, but it was noticeable in the Punto.

In the derv, I never noticed any difference, but thats got a bit more grunt to it.

Must admit though, I dont use the supermarket fuel very often.

Another possibility is that the ecu readjusts slightly to different fuels, which may be more noticeable on some engines.

Surely not 375 "urban short trips and revving high" miles?

328 over 50l tank
Long motorway trip with enthusiastic country A road driving.
They do well considering I love driving the tits off them.

Had40.44 MPG put of a trip once and that engulfed a thrash on the M6 toll. So it would have had more but for that.
