Mk1 focus rs realistic mpg, talk to me
Done a search and didn't come up with to much.
Looking at a focus rs mk1. But what's the realistic mpg round town ( mixed driving )
For a std and lightly modded.
My mate has one with a blue fin and recons he averages about 12mpg and can't better 16 mpg if he baby's it.
Cheers.
( I'm not looking for 30 plus but I get 24mpg out of my trophy Clio 182 so would like to get close to this )

I'm Finding My Feet Here Now
Not had mine long and unsure how to work it out but I'm getting about 230 miles from full to light on, about £60. Whatever that works out to, that's pretty much town driving all the time

PassionFord Post Whore!!
I usually put £25 in each time i fill up and get about 70 - 80 miles on that with a mixture of driving styles but a lot of it is just short journeys to and from work which is about 3 miles each way so i'm sure it's not running very economically on those short runs, obviously once it's warmed up it would be running more economically.

Well got it and got it home. Well pleased with it.
Although, it's going straight in for a hybrid turbo and live map as it got its arse well and truely handed to it by my Clio trophy on the way home which is ever so slightly disappointing.

I had a 290bhp one a few years ago and would get 220/230 miles too a tank taking it easy to work and back ect
But if I would do a long motorway journey (not doing 60 as that's boring)
Just a steedy constant speed 75/80? Would get more like 280/300 miles too a tank
As you know I have a heavy foot so in these figures there will be a few blasts
