KIPVW 0 Posted April 2, 2012 Hi Graeme, Depends how you drive it and what type of journey, if i go 10 miles to work over a few hills in fairly busy traffic a bit of stop start too it does about 33 by the time i get to work. On the motorwy it will easily get 40 plus after about 30 40 mins cruising. I think they're a cracking choice as a daily and if mine had to go for whatever reason i'd be after another in a shot. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coullstar 0 Posted April 2, 2012 Mmm, okay. Was hoping it would be at least 35-40mpg. Pretty much using the VR now as a daily to keep me putting to many miles on the RS4 but doing 25mpg at best on the commute I started considering a £1k tdi of some sorts that I could abuse however an 8v has popped up close by. I only do about 75-100miles a week commuting so with 35mpg it would take a while to recoup the cost of buying another. I suppose the positive is its petrol so no smelly diesel tractor noises.
