Just took my coupe on it's first long run to France since getting a six speed box fitted. Mostly motorways with a bit of town driving. Think I was cuising at 80-90 leptons, with (quite a) few blasts just to keep things intresting. From a full tank I got 380 miles before the fuel light came on.

how many cars that can do 0-60 in around six seconds, and over a hundred and fifty can still return this kind of fuel ecconomy. Oh and mines fairly high milage at around 92,000 miles. I'm really pleased

Same as Sammiboo too, I use mine for long trip mainly.
If you start getting 20-25mpg from normal driving change your thermostat!

What are the 16v N/A's like on fuel economy? should think they're a bit better than the 20v turbo's?
