I have a good offer for an octavia 1 4x4 1.8t 150 (5700 euro). Is the best price I have. A diesel one is over 6500-7000 euro

My bigger concern is about the fuel consumption in the city ....many people told me that is about 10 l/100 km other that is about 13 liters/100 km (in the city)

I drive normaly, and I live in a medium city , but yes the roads are not so clean, many cars in..

Can you give me some specs..even in lpg....I will convert in liters/kms

Regards

Certanly you speak about 1.8T 4x4 ? It seems lower than the oficial specs...

8liters/100 km in town is about diesel....and 3.5 liters on motorway is impossible..

I use the

http://www.pege.org/fuel/convert.htm

to convert your data.

thank you.

PS YES I SEE I POSTED IN FABIA.....can admin change this? I posted already in Octavia I section.

Thank you and sorry

Welcome to Briskoda. I have owned an Octavia 1.8T 4X4 Combi for nearly 8 years. The car has been remappped for the past 7 years and has only covered 33600 miles. I have kept detailed fuel and mileage figures which show that the car has averaged 31.66mpg (8.92l/100km) over 31963 miles. I would expect the fuel consumption to be noticeably higher (worse) than that in city use.

P.S. The link you used to convert data shows U.S. not Imperial gallons. My consumption figure is for the latter.

P.P.S. I have sorted things out by moving this from the Fabia forum since you had already received a reply, and have deleted the similar query you posted here.

The manufacturer's fuel consumption figures for the 1.8T/110KW 4X4 Sedan and Combi are:

Urban - 12.0/12.1*

Highway - 7.0/7.1*

Total - 8.8/8.9*

* Depending on optional equipment.

Get about the 27mpg about town and 30 + on motorways but all depends how heavy my foot is on the day

Thank you to all.

I have a really light foot..My max speed in about 15 year of driving was 130 km/hour...My main concern is the outside city consumption..My town is a small one ..about 400.000 citizens but it has a lot of cars and a medium traffic..

I wish to get over 27+ mpg in the city...

Thank you DWG for understanding..

I wish to buy an diesel one engine 4x4 but in my country are more expensive ..about 1000--1500 more euro than the 1.8T. I think that for that money (the difference -1000 euro) I could consider buying fuel for my next 2-3 years. From my past experience i drive about 12000 kilometers - 15000 km per one years (not too much)

Also in tha last years the cost of fuels increased very much....Maybe I will install LPG on the 1.8T....)

If there are any opinion regarding the fuel consumption in the city , eventually the sort of traffic( heavy /light) will be welcomed..

Regards

I have had mine for about 3 weeks and seem to be getting around 32mpg with mixed driving. Not the most economical car I have owned but the money saved in not going diesel powered more than compensates for the high road tax and fuel consumption.

Buy it and enjoy!

@Rapide

strictly in town..what is the average consumption.

Thank you

mixed driving is not good for conclusions because some one has 80% in town and 20% outside ..and some one (like taxi) has 90 % in town...

Sorry diasomie but I don't do much town driving. Based on other peoples experience I would say mid 20s is possible with care.

in ce oras stai?

eu am 1.8T dar nu 4WD,consuma cam 13-14 in Bucuresti si 7 in afara pe la 130...sub 12% nu cred ca scoti indiferend cat de lejer e traficul in oras,dc mai punem si clima asta inseamna 1-1.2l in plus la suta de km

tractiunea 4x4 mai inseamna consum mai mare cam 0.8-1l in plus la suta de km

1.8T numai economic nu e...

I average 33 mpg on my commute but I do drive quite gently to achieve that, more like 30-31 if I drive with a bit more urgency. Longer motorway journeys average about 36 mpg. I do very little driving in towns so can't comment on those figures.

I think the consumption is reasonable a car which can have a decent level of performance.

For mine I average around 22-24mpg in town and on a goold long motorway route see 33-38mpg depending on my lead foot

I have LPG on mine and remap and I just did a long run of 270miles and at 75 on the motorway I have averaged 36MPG on the trip meter I also do a lot of town driving with work and usually get mid to high 20's unless I give it some beans worst I have had on a tank brim to brim was 21MPG but it was great fun in the snow :D
