How many miles do you get out of 20quid worth of fuel. My saff cossie 4x4 has a stage 2 chip and i normally get about 50 mile out of 20 quid. Thats mostly around the town though going to and from work.
sounds thirsty mines stg 2 did 160 miles to 20 cruising home at 80 after pickin it up

Depends how its driven. I see anything from about 50 - 80 really. Although its just guessing as I just stick fuel in ang give it hell
. Last Ł30 saw 70 miles, but it was fuuuuuuuuun. Till the diff died

average 90 miles to 20 quid pottering about in town alot and driving like a doris , all std apart from exhaust & filter element , add a motorway journey at 70-80 in the mix and can get up to 130 miles to 20 quid .
i would be gutted with 50 mile to Ł20 as am having to use everyday since losing my job .
cheers

used to get 230 - 240 to a tank b4 rebuild as stg 3 so will see if any better with closed loop & new valves etc
nobody does sensible speed in a cossie all the time whats the point in having one

I regularly get 400 miles to a tank, not particularly easy, mostly local runs 10/20 miles.
NOT closed loop on greys, T3/34, I suppose on Ł20 150 easy, driving normally, which is foot down with me, as said didn't buy it to go slow.
Best thing you can do is avoid chips in favour of individual mapping, whilst chips are ok etc do the job, real benefits are seen on most with mapping work, esp in the mpg dept when driving easy.

I just find it hard to drive slow in my car too. Im not really that bothered about getting poor mpg i was just interested to see what other people got.
Hi...all these numbers...can anyone please convert to Km/l
... Last year my good old Sapp. went from 9,4 to 10,9 Km/l at mixed driving...hopefully it will do at least the same this year

Pete when i picked it up from msd the other week,we got about 21 mpg,on the 300 mile drive home,but were cruising at 90 most the way,with a few 100+ times,always found all my cossies to be the same on fuel,ither in town or on a run,mates t35 400 bhp 4x4 does about the same as mine,and it is also closed loped and just been live mapped,think all these ppl saying 30 plus must be free wheeling when they can,and never above 60mph on the motorway

Wilst closed loop can be good, it does depend on your driving style, correctly mapped imo closed loop doesn't guarantee an advantage.
I have the option of closed loop, it's a bit smoother when cold on closed loop, but I turn it off and run map 1 mostly, with no lambda.
