47.5mpg in my Mito Cloverleaf this morning... Can anyone top that?!

Filled up in Crawley Down and drove to Tunbridge Wells, which is a 20-odd mile journey with urban roads and country lanes. I had it over 48mpg, until I had to squeeze into a particularly tight space.

The Multiair engine is truly witchcraft, or I am the greatest driver that ever lived...

I've been able to get all my Alfas to 17
(Which is almost the same in MPG and l/100km) so it makes it easier for converting. :thumbs

That easily beats 48, no?

What do I win?

That's pretty good :lol:

Most I've been able to get on a motorway run is 44(ish). Doh!

Whoa I don't think I've ever dipped below 35mpg and that's been when having serious fun....

I'd say I have a heavy right foot when I want to - have had lots of playtime and devoted some time investigating Alfie's top speed......

 

[howell811]

About 17mpg for me !

 

[AlfaGTVLUSSO01]

yeah 19-20mpg for me, but i actually "drive"!! i'd hate to think how you have to operate a car to get 35-40mpg+ must be so boring!

I've got a 350 mile round trip at the weekend. I will see how low I can manage! :thumbs:

This sort of thing excites you ?

Low as in bad!

Even when I'm driving like I stole it, I manage around 36mpg... There's a lovely stretch of long straight road and it'll be late Friday night...

 

[Joss]

what do I win

 

[AlfaDrivingFan]

I managed an average of 44.5 mpg on my little trip to France that's doing 80 in France and 70 in the UK

 

[howell811]

:lol: You free wheel downhill Joss ?




.........and should you be using a camera whilst driving ?

 

[Guest]

Since getting my alignment sorted I've gone from 33 to 40 and, once the engine is warmed through, I drive it pretty hard. Once you've travelled more than 10 miles the QV is very economical - guess how far my commute is

what do I win

now show us the pic of the GTA's trip computer :lol:


i managed to squeeze 269 miles from a full tank on saturday brimmed it in the morning and the light came on when i got back home

 

[tcy148]

I've had my 155TB down to 9 mpg before. beat that!
But everyday driving I'm averaging about 32mpg, best I've had 44ish mpg was on roads in the highlands. Which I think is pretty reasonable for an old school turbo.

Nope and it was after I reached work. But we all know what the trips are like with porky pies :lol:
