Default MPG

I was just wondering if you drive the S2000 sedately out of the Vtec range what kind of MPG could you expect to get?

Use the search please. 35mpg is what you'll get at a steady 70mph.

Top down at 85 for me is 28.
Rarely see more than 32.

I get around 30 mpg in mine.

But it ultimately depends on your driving style and the type of roads you drive on. I use mine on country roads and motorways. No citiy/town traffic, which rapes MPG.

I wouldn't get too hung up on MPG for a car like this. It's not built for economy but if you drive it sensibly it isn't too bad!

Another thing. Petrol prices are very likely to continue to rise as the global economy recovers. Oh and of course the government will continue to tax a greater proportion. B@stards!
