I'm not sure I noticed any change at all

Which probably means that we've got the balance right between cool cruisin' and enjoying ourselves on spirited driving. :happy2:

mine was definitely thirsty @ stage 2+ though. struggled to get 30mpg on a good day lol

...."on a good day" is the giveaway :grin: - Seeing anything over 30 mpg makes me wonder if I'm having a good day. I think that 33 mpg is the most I have ever seen.
Boothy:
Had my stage 1 for around 18 months now and in all honesty if you drive normally then the cold weather makes more of an impact on mpg than the remap. Of course the difficulty comes in driving it 'normally' with the added power.
On my 25 mile commute with a mixture of up, down and flat roads I usually get around 30 mpg. If I try though I can it up to 37 on the same journey but I can never be arsed. :laugh:

Standard to stage 1 mpg stayed the same for me, stage 3 gives superb motorway mpg @ 38mpg but around A and B roads fairly sensibly driven gives around 31mpg.

I got 38mpg once out of my 2+ ED30 and almost died of boredom. My usual is around 28 :happy2:

....I'm the same. It's the difference between enjoying driving and it almost being a chore :happy2:. No wonder so many motorists don't enjoy their journeys just sat there in their caccoon negatively thinking about their mpg.
