Re: Your best / average MPGs

I should, perhaps, add that I have never turned the aircon off - I leave it on all year round & adjust the temperature as required.

Re: Your best / average MPGs

image.jpeg Mine is a 1.6 diesel 4x4, mainly because it was available immediately! The 4-wheel drive, that is, which I don't need & have never utilised. The 1.6 diesel I wanted because the 130bhp it was the most powerful available, & the smallest engine I've had in years! My best trip mileag...

Re: New but old owner

Yes, congratulations Baggie! After a succession of Alfa Romeo 164s & a 166, (all enjoyed!), followed by a MB C220cdi, (least said the better!), a Jeep Cherokee 2.8 Diesel (don't ask!), a FIAT Grande Punto Eleganza 1.9 diesel (almost too sensible), I celebrated entering my 75th year & 10th ye...

Re: Update of mpg and adjustments.

Thanks, Dave; didn't mean to be a smartarse! . I'm not that clever myself - as I said, I use a multi-conversion App which can do all the usual fuel consumption conversions. I perhaps should have added with regard to the fuel consumption on my Qq that I've never turned the aircon off. Summer or winte...

Re: Update of mpg and adjustments.

Unless I am totally wrong what Peter has stated is a pretty good fuel consumption and is above what montimar has stated. Peter stated he used 6,8 Liters / 100 kms which is 1,495 Imp. Galls. This calculates out to 66,88 Mpg - am I correct or have I got it all wrong Dave ;) I think you're totally wro...

Re: What's your current mileage?

I also have a 1.6 diesel Spanish Qq, Tekna premium, but mine is a manual 4x4. I don't need 4-wheel drive, but I bought it because it was available from stock! In Blanco Perlado. New 5th September 2014, now done 17,500kms at an average (according to the car!) of 15.3km/litre which equals 43.2 mpg. I'...

The best thing about my 2014 QQ is.....

I love the soft touch facia with piano black (sparkly!) inserts; the steering wheel quality feel & controls; the electric folding mirrors; electronic handbrake; keyless ignition; how quiet it is, even though I've got the "noisy" 1.6 litre diesel & 19" low profiles! I love the ...

Hello!

Yes, I fell for the additional bling, too! No regrets; I think it finishes the lines off well. The lower front grille in black plastic needed a highlight; the lower door trims follow the styling line well, & the chrome mirrors add a touch of, well, bling!

New Qashqai in Andalucia

Hi All, Just found this forum - looks interesting, & hope we can all learn from each other. I'm an ex-pat living near Jerez in southern Spain. Finally took delivery of my new Qashqai last September. I say finally, because it was in stock but took several weeks to get through the Spanish registra...
