How many miles to a full tank?
« on: 20 May 2009, 11:22:35 »

So, general query here....

How many miles do you get to a full tank of petrol, on average!?

Im sitting at around 340 miles, a fill of Super would be around the £60 mark at the minute....around 24mpg.

When i first got her, i managed 240miles to a tank....worked that out to be 16mpg....... 8-)

Mostly motorway driving gently ~ 450 miles until the light comes on but often see 500 . Due to the way I claim expenses I keep a full record of all mileage, fuel etc so I can say that over the last 6 months:

Average fuel consumption 29.5 MPG
Best From 1 tank 33.86MPG
Worst from 1 tank 22.95 MPG

Total Fuel 2415 Litres

Average price 93.39
Lowest Price 85.90
Highest Price 97.90

im not too far away from some of these figures....it would appear an LSD and modifed exhaust system do the mpg no good!

still in my defence NI only has 100 miles of proper motorway, if even, and i only use about 40 miles of it! im mostly in around town or on B roads
