Record range for my 2.0t

**Jamie** · 19th September 2005, 19:49

This weekend at WRGB, got the range reading the above figure..... by the end of the weekend and after 45 miles of off road miles on the rally stages I ended up getting about 350 out of a tankfull..... very happy with that considering I'm used to getting 250 to a tank!!!!!

Maybe I should change my driving style!!!

350 in the end, that's not bad at all!! I think the most I've had out of mine has been around the 340, but usually nearer the 300 as I do have a heavy right foot!!

Hmmmmm
Not bad, though I'd like to point out tha my V6 CDTi showed 530 miles when I filled up at the weekend!
(Waits for a 4 cylinder diesel driver to show his trip computer displaying range as "infinite"!)

I have seen 661 on the range on my V6 CDTi!!!

.

It just all goes to prove the Vec C can be pretty good on fuel if needed.

....decided to take a driving miss daisy (70mph) trip to bristol (M4) the other month got the range up to 716 miles (2.2 DTI)

I was driving Miss Daisy all last week and my fuel economy was only slightly better!

A blessing in disguise really as it means I don't cringe when I see the rev counter fly up.
