Havard Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Hi Guys, Just researching into getting a non turbo supe and was wondering the fuel economy on one? Thanks ps im looking at a manual, dunno if it makes a difference I get about 350 miles to a full tank on a good run. About 280 miles if messing about around town and booting it. I got 30 Mpg on a 700 mile run around Wales a couple of months ago. I would expect about 18 - 20 under normal driving conditions!! H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_b Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I get about 26 mpg, driven carefully most of the time with occasional heavy-right-foot action. That includes a bit of town driving too! PS mine's a manual too. I think across all car makes manual gearboxes usually give slightly better fuel economy. I presume the same is true for Mr T's offerings.

Vicky Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 A full tank which is approx £55, gets me around 300 miles of town/traffic driving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest supramikey Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 im gettin about 38mpg in my punto atm but i want a TT so bad next year. dont know if i can live with about half the mpg tho :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyW Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 My old auto n/a was just as bad on fuel as my old 6 speed TT to be honest. Probably because i drove the n/a harder where as the TT gets up to speed with far less effort. I'm not biased towards the TT in any way though as my next supra will be an n/a again i think, although a 5 speed manual this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivan Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 NA seems to be about the same MPG as the TT's then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveK Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I don't think I've ever got 350 miles out of a tank. Usually about 240 (mostly short journeys), maybe 300 on a long motorway run. On the other hand - when my friend borrowed the car the other day, he seemed surprised when I told him not to worry how he drove it because I frequently use the redline on both of my cars as the gear change point. So I suppose that might affect the fuel economy a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 So I suppose that might affect the fuel economy a bit. Just a tad Dave!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
