New Passat owner

Post by Dave1962 »

Hi every one . I've just bought a 2014 1.6 Diesel exec estate from a VW main dealer. Only had the car a week so i'm just getting use to it. My question is what do other people get for miles per gallon. I filled the car to the brim did 250 miles, 150 of which were on the motorway driving very steady. I was really trying to get the MPG in to the 60s which I was lead to believe it would do. I've refilled the tank and the car is only doing 43MPG. I' m used to diesels doing into the 50s at least. I'm not sure what this car will do if i drive it a bit harder. The garage has a 30 day guarantee were I can return the car and get a different one. I've returned the car to see what they can do but i'm not expecting them to sort it so i'm considering taking it back before the 30 days.
I would just like to know what others get out of the 1.6 Bluemotion cars.
Thanks
