when i did this a few months back, i made sure the tyres were properly inflated and kept below 2,000rpm..........got 450 miles to a VERY full tank - Mk2 180 ZS
have to see what i can get now its re-mapped with brand new plenum and got the inductionn kit on ;o)
Under 2000 rpm ..... It must have taken you a week just to drive the 450 miles !
My MPG is constantly updated in my sig... Well when i get the time to enter it all in.

I've been keeping tabs on my mpg since I bought my mk2 180 a couple of weeks back, so far managed to get 29mpg, then 19mpg, now 24mpg. Spot the bit where I had..err... spirited driving.
