I average about 29mpg on a mostly A/B road commute (25 miles), which isn't bad.

Edit: In a standard 225 LCR

I've had imtermittent problems with my pre-cat lambda which I changed for a new one litterally an hour ago.

On occasion I was dipping to 19mpg average, yet times over 25mpg. I'll let you know how I get on with the new one.

I run it on 97RON, but I've not had a re-map though.

Now in Lincolnshire!
Not sure about MPG as it can be all over the place, but just filled up and the light hadn't come on and I'd done 450 miles... im sure the light and buzzer was seconds away tho! Car said I had 35miles left. I well happy with that! Ok, I've been driving like an old fart, but I dont care...I got a LCR ;)

Got a reading of 40mpg driving down the M11 at the weekend tho! nice :)

My LC will do 31 - 35 on the way to and from work depending on traffic.

Best ever though was 40.7 nursing it through the N roads south of Cherbourg in France... had less than 1/4 tank and didn't know where the next filling station was! Fuel gauge moves v.quickly after the 1/4 mark.

This may be quite sad, but have had my 150 PD Cupra for just over a year and have logged all but one fill up, about 16,000 miles. So doing a basic sum on miles covered divided by volume filled, I average 43.9 mgp ranging from 40 to 45 (for a daily commute along the M4 Reading to Slough). The trip computer normally reads 43 to 44 so it doesn't seem to be far out, given the errors involved. It will do over 50 if driven with a bit of care.

Depends quite a lot on fuel for me. Been getting ~30mpg round town on V-Max over the last week.

Ususally mid 20s on Supermarket 97ron.

Best was about 35 on the motorway.
