I get around 30 mpg all day long. Thats round about 70-80 miles to a tenner. Thats a combination of by-passes and city/urban driving. Mainly urban though really.

And thats checking it the proper way, filling up then filling up again and working it out. I assume some if not most of the above will be guessing and not doing it properly.

60 miles to £20 works out about 13mpg!!!! Something seriously wrong there i would have thought mate. Maybe track day figures?

col cos1
90 miles to a tenner works out at 38mpg. I assume that is your max on a motorway run mate? I reckon i could see about that on a good run easily enough.

(both the above based on 93p a litre of v-power)

I don't know exactly what I get MPG but put it this way, I get SUBSTANTIALLY more MPG than I did with my Golf R32, that only returned on average 18-21 MPG

Hence I got rid of it
