I have the 125 although it'll soon be running 180.

Out of town driving sensibly - 58mpg

Out of town driving "normally" - I enjoy driving - 42mpg

Did a motorway blast today and may have possibly got my first ticket -_- . I've now enabled Mykey and limited my speed as I didn't realise quite what I was doing . Still - 44mpg

Around town 38mpg

If it makes you feel any better, motorway cameras don't seem to catch anyone until indicated 82 / real 79. Personally I avoid risking it, but plenty of folks don't

    It was a van parked on the hardshoulder. If I get a ticket I'll be disputing it as its illegal for them to be them surely?! I was fuming

    Eco mode off all this week. Did a few nice long, twisty spins around the coastline and averaged 41mpg. I'm pretty happy with that to be honest.

    Just thought I'd update this now my Dad has had his Fiesta a couple of months.

    He was getting 45 mpg when he first got it in March.

    Now it is run in a bit and the weather has warmed up he is getting 48 mpg and is well pleased. :)

    Thanks all.

    That's roughly the same as what I see in my 125

    Some fiestas have an eco button

    Otherwise, put a block under the accelerator
