mpg question

[big rich]

hi ive got a cdti sxi 120 and its my first diesel car,im getting 80 miles for £10.00 worth of fuel at £105.9 per litre.....no motorway use just round town use,is that good mpg?

my old car was a astra gsi and i got 50 miles for £10.00 of unleaded

For around town only, that is 38.5 mpg - near enough Vx's "urban" mpg figure so not bad at all.
Try getting close to that in the petrol vectra for that kind of driving, probably no where near.
I'm getting 50+ out of my 150PS, but I'm on the motorway a lot & that makes a huge difference.

I agree pretty good I also have the 120 and on daily runs to work 12 miles I am getting between 48-50.

sound's about right to me mate, i avverage between 550 - 600 per tankfull

I can where the problem lies - if you're paying £105 per litre, you're paying 100 times too much. Try another garage perhaps...?
