On a trip to Lancaster last weekend I managed to achieve a very pleasant 320 miles out of one tank at a speed of nearly 80 all the way traffic permitting.
Just wondered if anybody else has managed to achieve this figure?
Startrek - what are you doing, pushing it there by hand? I am achieveing 14.8 MPG, without it even being run in and only going up to 6,000 rpm. The first tank full I put in the computer said I had 220 miles on the tank - oh god !!!
I had very similar experiences ... first drive home from Leeds, 300+ miles, mainly 85/90 on cruise down the motorway ... ever since I seem to be averaging 200-210
managed to get 264 miles when I went to France and that was a mix of motorways and town driving. Didn't think that was too bad.
On the school run I'm gettind just about 17mpg in heavy traffic.
