Redlining every gear is knowing how to drive is it?

Amen
ive been getting excited over my results for nothing then haha
The average isn't too bad most of the time. I usually have mine on the miles to empty but even that can be all over the place sometimes
mines doesnt actually have this, its got current mpg, average mpg, average speed, a timer and how many miles i've done since I last pressed reset.

Jambo your M3 is actually 343BHP, its only the M3's in America which are 333BHP dues to some kind of restrictions they have, cant remember them off the top of my head.

I'm gunna get flamed for this, but, you thinking 25MPG driving steady is good and usable everyday, but, that would cripple me in fuel costs.

Thats ridiculous, in something quick I could justify it. In a 1.6 Ibiza thats a joke, either get it looked at or get shut because thats dog shit.

Joys of having a 100hp 1.6 8V engine, most of my journeys are short 1-3miles around town, so not the best for MPG records
