Just come back from Scotland now and got AVG 66.91 MPG fully loaded again over 521.9 miles (35.41 litres). Averaged 61.5 MPG (at the pump) over the 2166.9 miles I drove on my holiday. Best I got to a tank in the highlands was AVG 59.26 MPG over 534.4 miles (40.94 litres). For the other 2 fill ups I did, it didn’t drop below AVG 55 MPG to a tank even with some overtakes/fun.

Same. I’ve had my Fabia up to an unofficial 120 mph and not had any problems with temperatures. It still had more to give but had to slow down due to traffic in the far distance.

Beautiful shot of yr Yeti. Is that grill cover from Heko as mine is or custom?

The top grill from factory has half of it covered anyway. Thermostat is working and plus I’d get warnings way in advance of it overheating. Also I’ve driven in the recent heat wave with it on and it hasn’t missed a beat, the oil and temp don’t get any hotter then with it off.

I also have a grill cover for my MK3 Fabia that blocks the top grill. That improves efficiency and warms it up quicker for those shorter journeys.

Im currently on 215/45R16 on some Uniroyal rain sports and want to get some eco tyres after they run out. I could get the VW polo 185/60R15 Buenos Aires rims which are an aerodynamic rim for the 1L TSI Bluemotion also there isn’t any difference in the rpm in terms of tyre height.

28.69 Litres. Only cost £40 filling up at Costco E5.

Just done a run to Scotland fully loaded and got AVG 69.48 MPG over 439.1 miles tank to tank.

I was pushing it a little more then but I also didn’t fuel up after that little run from the coast as I kinda knew that my display was gonna be way off compared to the pump. Also with the remap with my 1.2 TSI if I put my foot down (in a lower gear) then on the real time mpg display it shows 7 MPG and drains the range display 🤣🤣. I’ve got a Scotland trip planned in July overnight fully loaded, so will be interesting to see what I can get in comparison. Definitely won’t be as good as will be fully loaded and will have a couple pit stops.

Am using 97 Oct (Costco fuel). Just recently had mot and full service done weekend. Haven’t changed tyres yet. They’re all still Uniroyal rain sport.

Wasn’t exactly a eco run this one but I recon there’s definitely room for improvement if I hadn’t gone into Cardiff.

Definitely drains fuel when I put my foot down. I had a look on the real time MPG and at full throttle it was showing 7 MPG whereas before it was showing more than double that under full throttle. The predicted range also shoots down.

that’s before I did 1 click at the pump.

Hey guys, it’s been awhile, I have recently remapped my 1.2 110 TSI hatch and have found it to be a rocket ship in comparison to what it was 🏎️🏎️🏎️. It rly rips now. Anyway, before i finally got a remap I had done a couple eco runs, one of them being Scotland and another that I don’t think I posted here. Today with my remapped car I managed to average 74.18 MPG over 228.1 miles going to and from wales. My previous record in my car was a AVG 64.96 mpg (non remap). This 74 mpg run was mixed driving, most of it was motorway at 55-60 but there was a 50 limit (roadworks) towards the M4 bridge and then the normal 50 limit on the other side past Cardiff. I did some country driving and then went through the heart of Cardiff to get to the other side to try out a Greggs Outlet. I then returned and the wind was against me on my return, pushing me from side to side. I highly suggest getting a remap done as it completely changes the car in performance and if yr carful enough economy as well.
