2.5D Yorkie engined Tranny. Usually put Ł20 at a time in it round the doors and see 100-120 miles to it. Think its somethin like 16 litres to Ł20

about 30 mpg out of my 53 1.9 dti vivaro van, (with 3 tier ladders and cat ladders on the roof rack and aerial kit in the back.)
trip computer says 30 mpg out of my 03 passat 2.0 s (130 bhp) (petrol)
passat once did 300 miles to 30 litres fully loaded with camping kit.
(it was a good run)

Last time I checked mine was 21mpg on a long journey taking it easy, 16mpg overall use & less than 10 if I was having fun
. Never bothered to check after that, but I was happy with those figures at 700bhp+.

i get about 17MPG , in a volvo 850 T-5. i think my driving style has a bit to do with that .
Jun 4, 2008 | 09:03 PM
The day I got my ST220 I did 130 miles to 25 litres worth of fuel so about 23mpg
General driving returns about 30mpg with 380 miles to the tank, my best is 32mpg with 400 miles to a tank.
If its a 'fun' tank, 27mpg is more accurate.

dunno, best I've seen is about 450 miles to a tank (escort 1.8td) but that was risking it on fumes
I think it averages about 42mpg at a guess.
