I've got a 1.8 SXi. I've never really worked it out, but I must be getting that kind of milage. 30mpg ish..
I'm looking at either a diesel, or duel fuel next.

Yeah, consumption for me must be about the same, not really that good. 1.9cdti is on the cards before the end of the summer

I've got the 1.8 SXI, I'm getting around about 30 ish to the gallon.
Drive like an old git & improves slightly.
But some strange reason, since I've fitted the SRI wheels, I've been speeding up

1.8 LS and get around 38-40 depending how hard the right foot feels. But it is mainly motorway.

I've got a 1.8 estate and average 35-36mpg with a mixture of motorway and town work.

ive got a 1.8 vvti estate and only get 25-26mpg on long distances, 21-22mpg round town! gutted

**kgsric** · 21st April 2007, 22:59

29ish is really not all that but it depends on how many miles u do/fill up that counts, i think i should have gone for the 1.9 cdti, but then i bet theres alot that do also, 1.8 does me ok at the mo???

vec-b estate does about 30mpg and thats mostly always loaded up with one thing or another.

vec-c 19cdti does about 44 mpg average with tuning box fitted,

i know which one i prefer but cant bring myself to buy a vec-c estate for work as it would get trashed

**plasma** · 21st April 2007, 23:31

someone in the same boat as me, erm, not that an estate is the size of a boat lol, if money stretches to it i'm gonna get a veccy 'c' estate to replace my trashed vec 'b' estate.
