Default ST170 MPG

Can ST170 owners please post how much mileage they get from a full tank and any mods they have on their car (if any)

I would also like to know if a Bluefin makes much difference to MPG

2003 ST170
K&N air filter
280 miles per tank

They are utterly terrible on fuel for a 2.0 N/A, most I ever got out of mine was 300, averaged 280ish!

I've had the ST170 from new, usually get about 300 mile p/tank, but I do a lot of very urban driving.
My wife gets about 75 miles more, if she drives it, but what's the point of driving at a steady 55...

I must be doing quite well then, and I was about to wine mightily about the poor fuel consumption. I did a run from Nottingham, to the Cotswold and then down to Weymouth and I got 312 from a not quite full tank to the light coming on. I have had the tank off and replaced on my 04 plate which is completely unmodded.

52 ST170 with 69k, K&N induction, 97 ron fuel, mostly short flat out journeys...

220miles to a tank.

Could stretch that to 260 on a long run with a very light foot!
