PD100sport/PD130sport/ PD130 FR

[jase750]

I've had all 3.
and for motorway miles the 100pd was WAAAAAY better than either the 130 sport or the FR.
after the CC remap and green filter Cupra intake, the MPG was better than before (aslong as you didn't use the extra oomph).
the 130 and FR was/is faster than the 100 but can't get anywhere near it on economy.
it was that good, come trade in time my Mum bought it off me, and she has got it now.
driving the two back to back the 100 and the FR are worlds apart reguarding handling and ride but if I was going to do lots of miles the 100 would be the one I'd pick the softer ride is nicer for longer trips.

saying that my mate has the 130 and its no where near as nice as mine after the remap and I can get the MPG. Although I if he got the 130 remapped then it would obviously hammer mine, have to say the handling is a lot nicer in the 130. But then again I do have the SE so I do get all the fancy gear that the 130 has like climate control, electric wing mirrors twin headlights etc. So I think at the moment Iv got the best of both worlds lol

My PD100 has averaged 53 to 55mpg ish throughout 13 months and 28000 miles.

Long term average is 53.5mpg (and I went and checked that just for you! ) over the past 4000 miles.

70mph is 2200rpm.

I averaged 51mpg yesterday when I drove from home to Wrexham to Reading and back home again - about 400 miles - all motorway miles of which were completed at approx 85!

4th gear would redline at 100 I reckons, or not far off anyway.

cheers! .

so what sort of millage do you get from a full tank? how much is a fuel tank of diesel? as to fill my 1.2 at the moment its about £40ish and will last 400 miles on motorways!

I get 500miles+ to each tank, maybe it drops to 450 if I'm *really* giving it some!!

I think the last fill up was £47.50 (but I had driven for 20 miles with the trip computer showing 0miles remaining) - I put in 44.something litres, so the tank was pretty empty!!

Only changing as I fancy something bigger!

does any one know how to work out mpg as i dont have a trip computer?

Use something like this: http://www.torquecars.com/tools/uk-mpg-calculator.php
