MPG for your Polo

Post by Gringogreen »

Thought it would be interesting to see what other Polo users are getting from their MPG's.

I run a 1.2TDI 6R, my car is used for commuting mostly, 45Miles round trip, I lift share to work which helps on the cost too. I have been keeping a spreadsheet for nearly a year and my current stats are:

Range : 28/03/2014 to Current
Average MPG : 56.83 (Ranges between 53.54 and 59.95)
Total Mileage : 10913
Fill Ups : 22
Total Litres : 873.35
Total Cost : £1119.22
Cost per Mile : 10.3p
Average Fill up : £50.87
Average Miles per tank : 496
Average litres fill up : 39.7L (45L tank)
Usual fill up place : Morrisons/ Tesco

How are you getting all these stats? Is there a feature in the OBC I haven't discovered yet, an app..?

I calculate it all from brimming the tank each time i fill up, jotting down the mileage, then the litres and price per litre are on the receipt. I keep a spreadsheet with a few sums on it and it spits out the answers. If you cant be bothered going to that effort, its sad i know, you can download lots of MPG calcs from the app stores for your phone.

And this is my profile on the web: http://www.spritmonitor.de/en/detail/516524.html
