Question

I am a couple of weeks away from ordering a new car and have decided on a WRX. What sort of MPG am i going to get? If i use it for work it'll be steady motorway,on days off it will be for pleasure! Also i have been offered 5.4%APR on a pcp deal at my local dealer,does anybody know of anything better out there as i don't mind traveeling to save cash.

My MY01 with PPP has now done 21k, I have figures for the last 14k.
My average over the last 14k has been 25.4 mpg. My mileage is mainly motorway, with the occasional A and B road fun run

I use mine mainly around town - no long distance cruising and moderate use of boost - I get on average 20-22 MPG.

Anything between 18 and 30, depending on circumstances. Optimax certainly improves things, but the main culprit for using fuel at an inordinate rate is that turbo thingy under the bonnet.....

accidentally posted a similar thread before i saw this, but as I was saying I am getting little over 18 mpg out of my STi, and haven't achieved significantly over 20 even on runs...
