Hi!!!

Bit of a strange question but I was wondering how many miles (per week) you do in your LCR on average!?

Currently I do 300 but from next week I'll be beginning a 'home working' pilot so this will be reduced to 80 + personal use...

How much do you do?

Cheers
Alex

Ours was doing around 400 miles a week. One of the reasons it had to go. At 27mpg, it was getting too expensive.

13k a year, works out to 250 miles, get through almost exactly one tank full a week.

The LCR can be quite economical if driven the right way, obviously this is the hard part! Off boost it's only a little 1.8

300 miles a week for me, my mpg not too bad though. Normally get around 32/33, and have got it over 36 on a few occassions. Constant flowing traffic at 50/60 means I dont need to use much turbo power!!! :p

I do about 200 miles a week, but can vary depending on my mood at weekends!

When i do more miles in a week i just make sure i drive the car a bit more sensibly to cut the fuel cost. Also constant flow of traffic makes it hard to put foot down anyway.

If driven sensibly the LCR can get a reasonable mpg. I compared this to all the other fast hatches when looking to buy, and the LCR was up there with the best.

I do about 12000 a year but only work 3miles from home :whistle:

My gf lives in Burbage in Leicestershire so i drive up there loads which boosts my mileage up.

This is why my evo had to go, it sucks petrol, only got about 17mpg maybe 20 on the m-way :doh:

The LCR is lurvly on the m-way, 33mpg+! Even better now its mapped [B)]

I still think there was something wrong with our car, it simply wouldn't do more than 30mpg, including a long gentle motorway trip, at a steady 70-75mph. My old M3 was better than that on the motorway.

Always 150 miles during the week to work and back, and then the weekends vary from nothing if I use the Mrs' car to 100 or so if out and about.
