No driving the thing fast at all at the moment. Up to 100ks on the freeway and cruising around town.City driving is crap in Sydney - get some momentum and speed up with the car and you only have to slam on the brakes at the next red light Bloody RTA and their lights Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/7321-fuel-economy-of-the-t/page/6/#findComment-66665 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightning Member 335 Member For: 22y 5m 11d Location: Perth, Western Australia Posted 21/12/03 06:09 AM Share Posted 21/12/03 06:09 AM Just went outside and checked:Ave 19.2l/100km, 260km on the trip and and average speed of 28km/h - I zero all trip meter functions when I fill up.This is city driving, it's a 15km trip to the office each day, plus some extra running around.I don't drive it hard, most of the time, either, so I don't know how you guys get 16's.Simon....

That was with the Stage Two Nizpro kit (Xede ecu).

Guest PaulM Guests Posted 21/12/03 08:37 AM Share Posted 21/12/03 08:37 AM got a fuel card, so who really cares, but; on the freeway in a manual sitting on 105 I get 9.5/100km on 110 it goes to 10.2 at 120 10.6. 140 11.5 Air con on add 5%.Around town, with a reasonable amount of spirited driving, but generally behaving, I achieve an average of 13.5. Fuel economy was not a consideration in buying this car but just adds to the list of things that impress me about it.
