Fuel Consumption

[demon]

Hey, Tunes, you are the man, what a challenge you have laid down. 590k is pretty good, but i bet I can out-do that!!
This is quite a funny subject really 'cos i would have thought that VR4 owners wouldn't care less about fuel use. I was wrong in thinking I was the only one! The funniest thing is guys and gals skiting about how bad their car gussles gas..

Demon, challange you to a fuel economy run!!!!:arse:

I've only had my VR4 for four weeks or so, but so far INSERT INTO post VALUES (assuming as others have said I don't plant my right foot too often) I get about the same milage between fillups INSERT INTO post VALUES (and about the same cost for gas +/- $5) as I did from the Mazda MX-6 v6 INSERT INTO post VALUES (naturally aspirated); which considering we're talking a difference of two turbo-chargers, 1/2 litre, and about 120hp isn't too bad.

My brother's 1.8 Lancer MR definately does tend to get a little further out of a tank than me though INSERT INTO post VALUES (funny that).

Hey demon, I'm only just down the coast from you, close enough to really give that economy run a go one sunny day!

[jtfleming]

I'll even drive with the A/C on. Hang the expense...Ba Ha Ha

Go hard demon!

Regardless of what car a person drives i think that most are aware and concious of fuel economy. Basic common sense with regards to money i guess.

Look here jtFleming, even towing a caravan, aircon on, a load of concrete in boot, your 1.8GDI will use less gas than my VR4 on the back of a car trailer!!
4me, I wll post a message here if an economy run is a go! Might end up in a hoon-fest instead!.
That will p*ss jtF off!! INSERT INTO post VALUES (edited by spirit979)

No it won't, you guys will be too busy filling up!!!:Cry1: :Cry1:

[demon]

Sorry, i meant to say annoy, or bother , will leave the P word out next time..
Hey, JTF, you know they say the only thing a VR4 can't pass is a petrol station!

[jtfleming]

Hey there DEMON, Are you offering to buy me a towbar so I can tow your broken down POS!!!!evil1:
