Sweet fanny adams!
Nah i used to always get 250 miles from a tank regardless of if i was motorway driving or ragging it. No idea why. You can work out the MPG from that, I'm going to the pub ![]() ![]() Member of the 99% warning or you're nothing club 2000 Moonstone 1.8 Meridian - Sold 2000 China 3dr XS - Dead 1998 Diablo 3dr XSI

You must drive quite swiftly all of the time or you have a sensor away. I guess it does help with the fact my Rallye has nothing in it but still... Its all about maintaining momentum. I dont thrash it all of the time (and imagine that id see much less to a tank if i did) But just pottering, 5th at 30 - 6th at 40.

I used to get between 35-38mpg from my 1.8. That's about 450 miles to a tank.
