MPG Readout after a "Hoon"

[LukeR94]

I know this has probably been done to death but hey!

Whats the lowest you have seen after a hoon? Please try to include how far you went aswell if possible.

I feel pretty proud of 10.2 Mpg on the trip computer over 4.3 Miles.

I got 11.4 in my CLS 500 just after having the exhaust resonator removed, I was booting it hard to enjoy the V8 ROAR :-) that was over about 4-5 miles.

On the flip side the most I have seen is 25.5mpg on a 300 mile trip to Cornwall last week.

I managed to get my 2L golf Diesel down to 14MPG

Thats usually pretty difficult haha.

14 mpg over 120 miles. It drained a 50 litre tank of petrol almost completely.

Proper fun cars don't have an MPG readout

And fuel computers are probably the worst invention ever, as many drivers seem to watch them more than their speedometer.

Meh... Amateurs....

E61 M5 - 7 laps of the ring - 90miles with 66 litres of fuel... You do the maths... 6.2mpg... Interesting fact of the day - the OBC on the E60/61/63 does not read below 7mpg...

928 race car - full chat lap of the Ring 6mpg, with 4mpg instantaneous reading while climbing up Kesselschen

9mpg on the 197.

11 on the E36 M3.

Suprised the Clio was lower!

This is me driving carefully in a C63 PP;

80 laps of Donington in the mx5 worked out correctly at 8.2mpg.

A 140 mile hoon around derbyshire in my old volvo c70 T5 returned 6.5mpg

A 40mile hoon in my smart car returned 43mpg!! and there is no way i could ever drive it any harder than I did!

Averaged about 4mpg in a 997 Turbo S at Jerez race circuit, can't remember what the trip computer said (it was in L/km) but it wouldn't read and worse so we did man maths.

I put 5 gallons in my Chevy Chevelle, pulled out onto a dual carriage way and the shifter mechanism fell apart. It was stuck in first. Had to drive back home in first gear. Booting it and coasting. Used the whole 5 gallons in 5 miles!

[HannsG]

Got a MK1 Fabia VRS down to 23mpg once

[Limpet]

No mpg readout, but I managed to get 30 litres into the Alfa's tank after 85 miles on one occasion after a series of "hoons". Works out at just under 13 mpg!

A few years ago me and my dad were in a Vauxhall garage sat in a Monaro. The speedo read to 200mph and I got very excited indeed. I want a speedo that reads to 200mph.

Why does it have a cup of tea on the speedo?
