its a 1.3 with 4 gears!
the loud pedal doesnt exist.
the v6 does 15mpg so cost over a tenner to go to work and back and at 6 days on 2 off the fuel bill would be stupid.
if the willy turbo does 30mpg on the motorway or better then shes staying.
Cant see it being worse than std when cruising tbh.
If anything, should be better, if mapped properly.

cant believe how clios in general are soo good on fuel.
my 1.8s and williams have always been brilliant.
hmm on a run i get 40+ on the Dimma :D
1.9 Derv box ftw 5th gear is good for the mpg :D
Williams none turbo easily make 30

is the mpg that good?
my clio will do 300 miles for £47 of super, then i got 300 miles out of a type r for £40. honda has a smaller tank, but'll give the same mileage. maybe its 15 years of engine improvements?
what do the new clios give.
Im getting 19 MPG on a full tank...

^^^ you got issues?
or a lead foot.
even if i drove the williams hard before i converted i would get 30mpg average out of a tank
Yea, I have issues I think. I have a fuel leak at the top of the tank but I think it evaporates from there as well...
Need to take it apart to investigate! :(

You know you love it ;) LOL :lol:
I usually get about 300 miles out of a tank, regardless of how I drive it. (1.8 )
I once got 180 but that was a near-top-speed run up to Brunters FCS, an hour on track, then a cruise home lol
BenR said that he could get 450 miles out of a tank. I don't believe that's ever possible!!
