I know this isnt the MPG topic, but since your talking MPG now, I just got 35mpg in my 2.0 SE. I just dont let revs go over about 2500, and that was on urban trips only. I believe its how people drive, not always the car itself. I also block gear change whenever possible, so I often skip 3rd gear.

just got my car back today, bloody monkeys went and replaced my flashy ice blue LED sidelights with standard ones - when all i asked them to do was fix the left one which probably wasnt pushed in proper.
Not only have they charged my £17 labour plus £4 for the bulbs - they've gone and 'lost' them. IM really p***ed off. However they did concede and deduct the rediculious £17 labour for fitting them.
Bringing the total to £85, £40 for the inspection and £40 handbrake, which i suppose is reasonable as they did the ignition coil work for free.

Also picked up a 206cc keyring and found the part number for the elusive armrest 9652yn, which is abit dear at £60. may order it after payday :lol:

More to the point, the igition coil replacement seems to have improved the pick up speed, but fuel economy remains poor but then it could be all physcological - constantly monitoring the MPG dispay as you rev/drive doesnt help :? The last time I filled up (£32) I managed 180 miles on a 2.0 SE. is that right? I hope not.
what does the arm rest look like?
New 53 Plate allure, Blue, one of the first in the UK.
Car has been rejected.
04 plate 1.6s same spec as the Allure.
mods to date:
:Rear lex lights.
:Wind stop.

Surley the whole point of buying a sports car is to drive it like a sports car. If you are gonna keep it under 2500 revs and skip gears you may be better off with a little Micra or a Fiesta.
