crish72 0 Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 I generally average between 20-23 but that's because it's all town driving. On a decent run it goes up to 30 ish..Chris Link to post Share on other sites
kalv 0 Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 The wife gets around 22mpg around town and when I drive on motorway get around 32mpg... quite acceptable I think.. fill up once a month on V-Power and smack some RedEx in every couple of months. Link to post Share on other sites
Seademon 0 Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 Mines usually about 18mpg but i like to give it the beans! The best I've had was 32mpg coming home from Stealth & I had a BMC fitted, removed it and put my old filter back on and not had the same Mpg on a long run since but I like the noise so its ok :0) Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Fletch 0 Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Best I managed has been 40.4mpg. On long runs at 55-60 I used to get 34-36 regularly. Now I have got a 106 diesel for the daily commute which does mega miles. Point is when I drive the VR its nice not to give a stuff! Spanked it to and from an early morning surf in Newquay this morning. Still got 26mpg! I like the strap "VR6 is not about mpg its about smiles per mile"! Link to post Share on other sites
