So Come On, Who Has The Highest Mileage Aygo?

[Mikes1992u]

I've just ticked over 120,000 miles. I'm sure the cars fuel economy is improving with age/mileage, I got my best tank this year at 81.1mpg (591 miles on 33.11L). I'm sure nobody will believe me that I almost always get over 70mpg from my 2012 Aygo with the 1L petrol engine. I've owned it since 2014 when I bought it with 10,000 miles on the clock.

I wonder why they stopped doing the diesel model when it clearly has better MPG than the petrol

I've clocked 26k on the little beast, and only issues were changing the front tyres - after 20k miles. The rears have not been changed and have still plenty of tread in them

I know this is an old post, but I think the issue was that the sticker Mpg for both the diesel and the petrol was almost identical even though in real driving scenarios the diesel often came out ahead... I did a see a few car reviews claiming the petrol and the diesel got the same fuel economy often recommending avoiding the diesel version of this car. All of this ment People often chose the cheaper petrol engined model. 

I'm not sure if it's my driving style but I tend to get better fuel economy in petrol cars than most other people can achieve... I got 65mpg in a 1.2L Nissan Micra and get 75mpg in my 1L Toyota Aygo. It probably isn't a fare comparison but the diesel cars I've driven are a 1.9 Skoda Octavia (which got around 60mpg with me driving) and a 1.6 Renault Mégane (which I got around 64mpg driving). I've also driven a MHEV Hyundai i20 with. 1L petrol engine which I only got 55mpg from very careful driving. The hybrid system seemed more like a parasite than anything else though, the car was also schizophrenic, it had a "sailing mode" where it randomly switched the engine off and went into neutral when you lifted your foot off the throttle, the reason I say it was schizophrenic is because lifting off the throttle was like a dice roll between heavy regen braking and engine off coasting. I'm almost certain the car would've got better fuel economy if you could've turned off the regen!
