HI
Looking at an ex demo 08 STi. Can anyone give me some real world MPG figures.
I see Evo mag is getting 25 is this possible?
Had a 06 Hawkeye and never really got more than 17/18 mpg.
Thanks.

my 06 i get 34 mpg on a run 28 overall a lot less when having fun lol.
so 25 seems ok

25 is easily obtainable

Mine varies between 26 when the wife's in the car, to 22 when solo...

Easily does 24/25 on the motorway in Sport or Sport # at a steady 85, upto 29/30 if I take it steady at 70 in Intelligent mode. Spirited driving/town work drops it but my overall average across 8500 miles is 26.5mpg although I do a lot of motorway miles so might skew it slightly. B-road run obviously lowers it a lot too but does give you plenty of smiles.

Hope you are getting a good deal, I tried trading my 08 STI (with Prodrive gold 18" GT1's and a couple of other options - against a £22K Mini JCW and a £24K VW Tiguan) last month and got offered £15K, the dealer they tried (who I bought it from) really didn't want to buy it and had 2 demo's for sale themselves, mine had 7.5k on the clock at that time.

I did get anything from 32 to 27 mpg. Changed to Miller 10w40 and lost 2-3 mpg.

My average over the first 3100 miles is 25.2 MPG. It's the supercar equivalent of a Toyota Prius for economy

I must also add i am not a fan of the intelligent mode, just seems to defeat the object of having an STI.

On board computer is showing exactly 27.0 for the 5,000 miles I have covered since I got it.

Have had 28 on motorways (several slow days at 60 or so). Rest of the time just under 27 on normal mororway driving in I mode with the odd blast to over take.

Low 20's across country - lots of fun.

In town worse than across country. Better economy than the 2.5 WRX I traded in, so I'm delighted.

i had one for a week and it never went under 20mpg even when driving hard.

I drove the 330S for about 1/2 hour and it never saw over 15mpg

I can believe that... When I picked up my "demo" STI it was showing 17mpg and after a tank it was still stuck on 17!

I reset the clock and since then it's been happy at 22-26

1/2 hour and not seeing over 15mpg sounds like entertaining driving Well done... like some others I'm not a huge fan of the I mode, only when the tank is running low and I somehow think that I mode will make sure I get to a petrol station!

Thanks Chaps sounds pretty good. Are these fuel computer or calculated?
Do you trust the computer?

All computer for me, never checked manually but I don't think it seems far out.

scooby L

Ditto.... If I was that bothered about mpg...I'd not be running an Impreza

I did the calculation on the first few tanks and it was very close to the mark.
