Fuel on VTS...
What kind of mileage are you guys getting from a VTS around town on a full tank?
Just curious to see if there is much difference between that and a VTR.

Don't get an S1 Rallye box if you want fuel economy!

They sound pretty good figures to be honest.
At the moment, I am getting around 100 miles to £20 on the Focus doing town driving. A full tank around town of £50 gets me 277 miles so VTS will be much better.
When I had the VTR, I was getting about 170 miles to £20 so nothing major difference.

i would have expected a bigger difference between vtr-vts from what people are mentioning.
seeing as citroen hammered the vtr with performance disabling features and fuel economy helpers e.g manifold and gearbox.

tenner lasts 5 mins as said, big difference between vts nd vtr, my vtr town/motorway used to see 400 to a tank or 360ish raking it round country tracks.........

A few mixed comments now.
I know Mike gets 355 miles mixed driving, but he has had that System 4 installed. What kind of mileage do you get Matt out of a full tank? I'm presuming you never put your phone down..
