I notice in the r26r adverts pistonheads essential part it says 33 mpg well I get nowhere near it i get 23mpg at best.

[joshG]

Don't know if it makes a difference but mine is stage 2. What mpg are others getting? not that I care about mpg in this car but interesting to know.

[Inverted]

Can remember what MPG I was getting but I know mine (also stage 2'd) would do 4 laps of the nordschleife before the light came on. and a set of R888's over 1 weekend there. Overall I think my CSL has been cheaper to run.

[roystinho]

I think if you drove it normally you can get 30+ mpg, I got that out of my 225 when I was gentle

[clarki]

Poddling over to spa I was getting over 40mpg.

Changed a bit going round mind!!

[Arun_D]

Yeah, massaging the throttle on a motorway run, I could get 40mpg+ in my R26/R26.R if I really wanted to.

Never bothered checking on track!

[Nimburs]

As above normally 35+ on a motorway.

Very lucky to get anyway near that imo. However best of luck.

For reference I paid 18k for mine with less than half the miles of this one and 1 year old.

Is that the real R26.R cage? Weren't the standard cages all red?

[Inverted]

Well spotted. Probably one of the ones delivered with no cage.

Its No.47 im sure someone will have the numbers and original spec list to hand.
