paulyinthenorth Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I'm averaging 33mpg since I got mine. It's Mountuned though. I dunno if that helps or hampers mpg... Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Not to sure to be honest bud. I've mainly been keeping mine under 3000-3500 rpm till everything's settled in, so not sure if that's helped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmizz93 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 If you drive it real nice you can see 42 from it! But MPG will get better as you bed everything in.. Expect to see your best results after the 1000 mile mark :) Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winemart2 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Drive it real nice, LOL Dave, where's the enjoyment in that? :D I've done ~1800 (1.0 125) and still only get ~36 ;) I love it tho and the poke still surprises me. My XR2 felt dead after a couple of weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmizz93 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Yeah, there is no fun in that, I was driving home from Birmingham at like 3am and thought a cruise at 70 would do me good! I usually see anywhere between 32 and 36! But the point was if you really want to save the pennies you can ;) Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will-MK7 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I'm averaging about 32mpg at the moment with a mountuned one Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeZS19 Posted May 9, 2015 Author Share Posted May 9, 2015 I'm getting the same as I was in my 1.0 Zetec s, but I think it's because the st's power and torque is so much better, where as in my zs I had to give it some to get it to go. Defo loving the car so far! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeZS19 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 Done 350 miles in the St now. Can honestly say I've loved every minute so far. gave it a good boot today and the speed and sound left me smiling! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E5GDM Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Those fuel consumption figures are terrible, if you drive it properly you should be getting less than 30 mpg. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulyinthenorth Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Those fuel consumption figures are terrible, if you drive it properly you should be getting less than 30 mpg. 50 on the motorway in 6th really does boost up that mpg figure. !Removed! average speed cameras on the M60 :( Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
