307 mpg

[wizzer59]

Hi guys
Recently purchased a 02 307 2.0hdi 110 5sp manual, low mileage and well looked after, just wondered what sort of MPG should I see from it ???? i do about 550 miles a week, about two thirds of that motorway.

Would have thought about 45mpg as an average

Depends on how and where you drive it, 45 average is probably about right if you do some town/city driving but if you drive gently on rural roads 60+ mpg should be attainable.

I got a quite amazing 50mpg or thereabouts off the last tankful in the C5! That's a "rough" calculation of brimming it til the first click, then running it until the light comes on then brimming it from the same pump taking into account the 4 miles it took me to get to the pump. I'm quite impressed with that. As ever, it seems driving it quite hard for a while after I got it has helped.

If you drive sensibly 50 mpg is attainable from the 2.0. I have had over 60 mpg wearing my glass slipper.

My first thoughts were that you were doing really well getting 307MPG!
