I've had my corsa 1.2 16v around 2 months now, and i am not getting the milage i thought i would. Currently with £20 of fuel i am getting 170 miles max, i was expecting around 200 from 20 quid? or is this around normal?

I was thinking if a good service will make any difference in particular putting in a new set of spark plugs and changing the fuel filter?

any feedback welcome

170 from £20 is about average
if petrol is say £1.12 a liter
£20 would get you around 3.92 gallons
works about at about 43.3 mpg

vauxhall official figgures for the 1.2 16v is 44mpg so your pretty much spot on the money

Mate grant yourself lucky the last time i filled up with £30 i got 160miles
However i may be able to get more but my petrol gage is not the most accurate (bounces) haa

m9 is shocking on petrol
perhaps cus i dnt hang around

if you drive it like you stole it expect to get your wallet out often: thats my theory

nath what do you get out of it?
Im not a slow driver but i try and get into fifth all the time and still only get around 160 ish

i got a 1.2 8v i get around 120 miles 4 20 quid, which is rele crap i fink sum thing is messed up wen its on choke, cus its dead slugish

used to have a 51plate 1.25 fiesta and it dropped to about 25 mpg at one point, mucky air filter
