iv never been 1 to work out what mpg my car is doing so anybody give me a rough idea say on and average daily drive, iv got a sti blobeye runnig 348bhp, iv got a little more curious as fuel prices are going up and up

topman2180

i have an sti blobeye with ppp and I get 22mpg on motorways too scared to work out what it does around town.

gallois

i would have thought about 22-24mpg average.... single figures with foot to the floor (as are almost ALL cars), prob touch 30mpg with a gentle foot on motorways.

hahah me too, iv got more and more curious the last few months as a tank of fuel seems to get me hardly anywhere these days.

gallois

btw mine is a 2.5 290bhp, alltime average is 24mpg, seen 32mpg average on a long 300mile motorway run though.

Running a standard bug STi - on V-Max.

Running with my scangauge, my 50 mile trip to work over A-Roads and Slow Motorway gets me a pretty solid 25 - 28mpg.

Longer runs on the motorway up to 29mpg

Pootling around town or thrashy B roads I'm looking at 15 - 19mpg

I get pretty much 200 miles before the tank is showing 1/4 full. Usually fill up then for around £55.

I just worked out my MPG, out of curiosity really as I've never bothered before. My car is an 06 STI Spec D with PPP - approx 320 BHP. Based on my last couple of fuel bills and weekly mileage I'm hitting 19-20 MPG. I didn't think it was quite that bad.

Where I live though you cannot get a 'good run' to get this figure higher. No motorways and only 1 dual carriageway

scoobiepaul

About 40 mpg if the wife is listening, but average 22-24 mpg around town/short runs. 28 mpg on motorways (80 mph) with a ver 7 jdm sti.

These MPG question are unbelievable,almost every day someone ask about MPG,if you want great car with MPG,go for Diesel(or at least LPG conversion on Subaru) not Subaru.

I've manage last time on full tank of V-Power 330miles(70% motorway,cruising speed around 70mph and 30% city driving),before i manage due failing O2 sensor around 220miles form full tank

If you've got an iPhone load up the Road Trip app. Covers all costs and gives MPG. My 2004 WRX is giving an average of 27.44 MPG. The best i've seen was 32.2 on a run down to Newcastle.

MY03 STI PPP (345Bhp) - Urban 18mpg..

SpecDscooby

spec D in progress standard ECU map.....207 miles tank empty....short trips and cold weather kill me...I would suggest 20mpg urban would be good in anything aside a standard WRX, My old car before PPP was ok for 25+mpg round town.

Just worked mine out last week. Was getting 16mpg pootling around town. Was shocked. 55 blob sti ppp

gallois

Yet you monitor your miles per tank

NO-ONE is presuming that buying a scoob is an economical decision, some people want a scoob, but also need to watch their pennies, like myself, so have worked out what they can afford, and if a scoob falls within their budget, then good on them, this is why they ask.

i totally agree with you. iv owned imprezas since i was 18 im 26 now , i love driving them, i love the feeling it gives me, it really bugs me when people say"youve bought the wrong car". no i havnt!, the way fuel prices are going its made me a little more reserved on how i use it and was curious to what mpg i would be expecting from the power im running, thanks for all the replys by the way

Just now i am struggling to get 200 miles out of a full tank. If someone is good at maths they can work it out.
