Puma 1.7 Fuel question.

[Dover Nige]

Hi all,

Thinking of getting rid of my very economical daily runabout (93 Clio 1.9 diesel) and picking up a 1.7 Puma as I've heard lots of good things about them.

Can anyone tell me the cost to fill the tank and how many miles til empty please..?

My other cars are heavy on fuel so I don't want anything to bad mpg wise.

Thanks..!!

Anyone..?

Just need to know real world mpg on a 1.7 Puma....

Depends how heavy your right foot is

£35 will fill the tank and you *should* get around 250+ miles from that.

Lovely Impreza you have, I have been thinking of selling the Puma for one myself.

42 litre tank on Puma's and it took about 35 litres to fill it last night at approx £37 Quid.... 268 miles on the trip. Mixture of town and runs - I don't drive like a saint

As above. With steady driving you can get over 300miles from a tank. Worst I've got is about 120 miles on a track day.

If you put 40psi in the tyres and do a massive road trip at 70mph all the way, you'll just about eek 350 out of it. Otherwise I get a fairly reliable 300.
