Thats good going, I saw 48 mpg average on mine the other day, but I was trundling along at about 35mph stuck behind a whole line of traffic for 11 miles. Out of the traffic it dropped to 43mpg (70mph).

I find MPG sticks around 33mpg with a mix of mostly motorway + some urban driving..
40+ mpg is easily achievable although but most motorway runs average about 36MPG :)

Some great numbers considering the performance, does anyone know how big the fuel tank is on the TSI?

Yes - they are all 55 litre tanks.

Haha I can imagine! Might be a nice surprise for me though as my current 350z has a 80litre tank [emoji24] on v power every time as well

My running average is 36.4, that's over 7500 miles of generally mixed driving, best was 45.1 which was a long slow run up the A1, worst was 32.2 which was stop/start on the M25 for 2 hours with a P2015 fault!

2nd Gear on the motorway is not recommend ;)

On a serious note what kind of driving do you normally do? 6th gear on the motorway should get you some good mpg in the 140?
