Remember when it was a really big deal that Clarkson managed to drive that diesel Audi from Guildford to Edinburgh? I'm doing almost the same journey on Sunday in my 1.4 TFSI CoD and I think I might be able to make it on one tank - anyone want to take virtual bets?
I'm driving to Whitekirk, which is 400 miles away.
I did a trip last weekend From Beverley (Near hull) to Porthmadog in North Wales and back, I averaged 44.6Mgp on the way there and 38.8 on the return trip due to traffic, overall i covered around 420-430 miles (205 each way and a little driving while there). I filled the tank before I set off and the reserve tank warning light came on just as I pulled into my street. So i got around 420- 430 in one tank
Im pretty impressed with that
(1.4 TSFI 122)
I just got 48mpg on the 12 mile commute into work ( 122PS+DSG) ... mixed traffic but no hold ups , nice and sunny, very pleasant . Shame i've got to stay at work
I think the way the 122ps works is its perfect for consumption when doing lower speeds ie. 50-60mph but not so good on motorway at 70...ish. Works for me but I imagine some people would expect a car that gets 45-50 in the suburbs to do much better on a long run but it doesnt . As i say works for me though .
Not yet decided on the A1 I'm getting ….. off to see it again tomorrow (1.6Tdi, 2011 plate, 22,000 miles)
After reading these mpg figures I think I'm spoilt with my A2, fill it up for £38 and I get about 440 miles out of it
Agree with that. After about 11,000 miles, I'm getting 56mpg with the 1.6tdi - mostly shortish journeys of less than 20 miles and not much motorway driving.
Oh dear … it does depend on how I drive it obviously … trundle to work between 55-60mph, all motorway driving 60 mile round trip each day, but if I put my foot down to 80'ish it drops to about 360 mile to the tank
Salesman pushing for me to sign but not in a rush to be honest … love my A2 but have 150,000 miles on it and its 12 years young.
Lots of play left in it as yet :=)
