... Your fuel economy goes to pot

I don't know if it's running colder for longer or the lower air temps allowing for more aggressive fuelling but I lose about 10% off my fuel economy (270 miles to a tank instead of 300) when the cold weather hits.

Is it just me?

If it ain't broken.. it soon will be

lolyeah ive turned my boost down to 30 percent on the controller too. staying cold for alot longer now its cold too.

You are not alone Paul lol

Although fuel consumption has reduced greatly on mine since I parked it a month ago lol

yeah, now i have my new clutch fitted to my pug 205 i think im going to barely use the four over winter.

Hmm, you guys have it easy. I think my fuel consumption has dropped considerably due to the rear wheels doing a lot more miles than the front at the mo. Is fun though

lol, well im just glad now i have my little pug back, left it at my friends house and went round on sunday and fitted the gearbox back in and the clutch has a lifetime gaurantee! nice

glad though, as the pug uses half the petrol money the gt4 does. so fair bit more economical

i am thwe oposite i use more fuel when its hot to whenits cold
i can get a round trip to humberside airport and back in the winter (300 miles) but in teh summer i am lucky yto get back to king lynn before petrol light comes on
