MPG seems near enough the same across the range to be honest.

 

I guess it depends how much money you've got and what condition yours is in. I mean if i had a show/near to show condition valver and rather keep it and whack a turbo on as opposed to sell it and buy a vr6

I'm only getting 25mpg out of my valver. No turbo. No supercharger. I'm thinking a Hummer might be better...

oo nasty, mines pretty gd she runs at about 31 mpg when shes being pushed, the most iv had out of her was 45mpg but tht was accordin to the on board computer, but yea my 16vs not in bad nick jst there's few things need doin to her, had debated puttin a turbo on but for what it would cost to do it wouldnt be worth it as shes not mint. I just fancied a change to a vr, but had been told they are v thirsty, and didnt want to get rid of mine to find out i couldnt afford to run a vr. cheers

26 is the best i've had out of my valver, and that was motorway miles!! I brought my 16v just as a fill in till i get a vr, but i'm more than happy so i'm keeping it. If the power is enough for you, keep it. especially with everything constantly going up : petrol, tax and insurance!
