Yeah, most of my driving is long distance.
But city driving I have learnt to conserve fuel by getting off the
accelerator as soon as I see a red light and try and pick the change to green
while still in secound. Still get great economy in city, around 5.1

I was banned from the VW Vortex! (I think because I did not meet the membership criteria)

I found this forum because I did some Googling as my warranty is due to expire shortly.

I think that this forum is more useful and informative, as the contributors seem to actually use the forum for its intended purpose.

I do however still visit VW Vortex if I need advice on which socks to wear or which mobile telephone to buy.

can we get this discussion back onto fuel economy somehow guys? cheers :-)
