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 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.

Jesus how many gear changes! I'm in 3rd at 40, at about 2300-2400 revs....

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

Well it would've been if I'd used it out of Eco mode, I didn't want to waste fuel lol. But don't go off topic.
