5G 2.2 VTi manual :

Urban = about 25 mpg (11l/100)
Mixed open road = about 29 mpg (10l/100)
Long trips with lots of motorways = about 32 mpg (9l/100)
Worst [having fun in the Alps and Dolomites] = about 20 mpg (14l/100)
Best [cruising on flat motorways in N Europe] = about 40 mpg (7l/100)

30.60 mpg over 113,465 miles / 11 years, 4 months.

Last summer I went on a European road trip covering 2,595 miles in total and my car achieved a frankly amazing (for a Honda Prelude) 39.1 mpg over 2,513 of the 2,595 miles - I didn’t fill up when leaving home, I filled up at Dover instead, hence why I can only calculate the 2,513 miles of the 2,595 total. 39.1 is very surprising, even beating Honda’s claimed figure of 36.7 mpg for extra urban driving.

The first 6 month of lude ownership, many years ago, got me 14mpg average :lol: :x :lol: vtec is fun after all. And yes, the engine was working well and was well serviced :x :lol: :lol: :lol:

Most miles from a tank was 430 on a gentle run. Worked it out to 5miles to the £ on normal driving.
6th gen Prelude please Mr Honda. RWD 2.4 turbo lude.
