Default Post your lowest average MPG competition !

How about it ? I love driving in manual dynamic mode and letting the throttle overrun pop and burble... but of course I'm well aware that's caused at the expense of chucking unburned fuel down the exhaust !

Sometime's though, its worth it for the sound.

In 'spirited' back round driving the average mpg is low teens, but around town, in dynamic manual, and burbling that exhaust as much as possible, I've got it into down to 8.7 mpg average for that drive. But - no pic so can't prove it...

Best I can do with proof is attached - 9.8mpg.

can anyone beat this ? :-)

*rules:

can be no less than a single drive (can reset mpg at start of drive)

Ha fun game. I'm sure I can beat that. Anyways, can you edit your title? I had no idea what this thread was going to be about.... A slow drag race?

I'm in the low 10s to high 11s, but I drive in Dynamic/Sport mode 90% of the time.
