Just worked out my fuel bill for the Nurburgring trip
 

£295 quid - which aint bad really considering :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:


:top: :top: :top:

Thats awesome considering how far you travelled in england just to get to the tunnel and how many laps your drove.

Great stuff :top:

Lambda works then (even though you werent on it half the time due to your fetish for travelling at 140mph+)

I have a sneeky feeling that the Autobhan started right from leaving the services in calais :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

in total i used about £300 too, £200 worth of euros, and about £100 getting to dover and back :cry: :cry: :cry:

but the fez was running about 100mph all the way home

I went to landgraaf in Holland at the weekend and i must say the main carriage way out of Calais is the bollox!!!!!!!! :top:

As you know, i was doing some research for my new closed loop 750cc conversion i was running there with and was doing full tank to tank tests using photos to record mileage, so heres my data:

We reset the counter at the fuel station as we left Blackpool and brimmed the tank to max....

Then upon arrival near Folkestone we found a fuel station and brimmed her again...

Channel tunnel was reached on £50 (49.5litres) of fuel and was exactly 331miles from our house. So travelling MPG in this cossie at English Motorway speeds is approx 31mpg. :cool:


All in all, we used 346.49 litres and paid around £346 for it.
Divided by 4.5 we get around 77 gallons and we travelled 1659 miles giving us a figure of 21.5MPG overall.

The above figure of course included 21 laps of the Nurburgring and many hours of high speed cruising through Germany, Belgium and France :top:

Not bad overall IMO. :cool:

is a lot but i put 80 quids worth in my cars yesterday :wall: :wall:

mine averaged about 21mpg too Stu - bearing in mind the speeds we were doing over there and the high speed track abuse, the economy had the love :cry: :top:

thats some pretty good fuel consumption figures :top:

Top stuff Stu :top: :top: :top:

I managed to use 11 liters of fuel in just over 100miles trying to keep up with you lot on the way home :cry: :cry: :cry:

very good mpg there lads. :top:
