Not interested in taking longer to get places, but it seems to make no real difference anyway, got the same at 60 as 70 on more local fast runs. However the Golf averaged 65mpg+ on a 70mph run even for half an hour...2 hours in this still doesn't hit 60mpg, makes no sense to me lol.
Expected an easy 60mpg average with mixed driving, and at least 65mpg on a distance cruise, which is still way under the manufacturer figures as I knew they'd be off. Gutted I didn't buy the 2.0 tbh, would've had more power, an extra ear, better brakes and I cant see MPG being much worse if at all. Annoying really as the rest of the car fits my needs perfectly, just chose the wrong engine!
