With the mods it still will, but I agree with the driving comment.

disagree with that, its been remapped for a start, any increase in boost will automatically increase fuelling, iv always had a bit of a dislike when remapping companies claim better mpg after remap for turbo cars, most of that is based on the fact that as you have more power you dont need to drop it down to over take or go past things on dual tracks etc.

If you don't come on boost then it won't use anymore fuel

Nope, sat on the motorway cruising at sensible speeds it will be more efficient, using a little bit of boost driving around town or whatever will be about the same. Obviously on full throttle it uses alot more

Ibiza cupra, Map, egr delete, decat, rear ARB, decent suspension, and some decent pads.
Will be going around the 182 then dude.
I miss my 130 ibiza sport i really do, top car for the money!
if you get a non cupra, 312 upgrade and some cupr wishbone bushes will make it feel alot fresher

Yeah true point tbf, mine drives quite nicely even if you don't come on boost, mainly when I'm trying to do a 15 mile journey and my car is telling me I have 4 miles of fuel left

Errr we averaged 71mpg (on the clock) over 180 miles today in my mates 210bhp Fabia which is pretty much neck and neck with me, on Fuelly it said it was 53mpg but it could have been more because it judges it on the whole tank and we could have been far more gentle with it at times.
But yeah when I drive mine normally I usually get like 280 miles to £55 worth of V-Power... The trip counter usually says I average about 23-28mpg over a tank but it is pretty 'progressive' driving.
I have a track day in 2 weeks so I'll do some calculations then.
