Yeah sure, I'm about 6 miles from you and I am free next Sunday.

Which dealership did you get it from? Warrington or Liverpool?

What sort of MPG are people getting? I do 80 miles a day - 70 of which is motorway where I do 73-75mph on ACC - getting about 50mpg calculated. If I do A roads at 50-60mph the trip says high 50s though.

I get 45 - 58mpg depending on driving conditions. My commute is long roads (15miles) at 50mph speed limit and if no traffic I hit at least 55mpg. I have never hit 60mpg.

Stop start traffic I get 35-40mpg in rush hour, although if its really bad gridlocked - 27mpg (I should use the stop start function more though, I tend to keep my foot on the clutch)

To be fair - For a turbocharged petrol engine that is not bad (or so I am led to believe). And at this moment in my life, I prefer pulling power over economy features which is why I didn't get a TDI.

I drive a 40 mile round trip each day and I spend roughly £20-25 a week in petrol at current prices and I am content with that.

I believe the Kia Ceed 1.0 Petrol Turbo drains fuel from reading up on it.

The sweet spot is 6th gear at 60mph I found. Wack the cruise control on and the counter increases more than without it.

i have a 65 plate R Line 1.0 tsi 6 speed manual , i dont have the same noises as you but my gearbox and clutch are very noisy , you can hear and feel it disengage every time you depress the clutch , its alot noisier in 1st and 2nd i havehad it back and forward also with no help . It just started from no where 1 day it was fine then the next it was like that , my girlfriends 1.2 polo s 60 plate is so much better when changing gear
