250 miles on £40.

So, perhaps 60 miles on a 10a!! (or £10 in English).

Corsa 1.4 60-75 miles.
Corsa 2.0 60-75 miles. (fuel was a bit cheaper then)
Evo standard 45-70 miles.
Fuel is typically 10-15% more expensive here.

Evo (not so standard) 30-70 miles.
Civic turbo. 30-70 miles.

I run my car's really lean on a run so get better economy but soon as you hit the loud pedal it soon drops.

My old Saxo VTR would regularly do 100 miles to £10 with careful driving around town and 120 miles or so on a motorway.

My Zetec Turbo will do 35 miles of hard driving, and about 50 with very careful driving.
