Sub 200 is the worst, and the best has been around 350 on a very slow run back from Scotland.

Now 110 is impressively bad :D

Best is around 300-320 but worst measured is 51 miles from a full tank (several times) :lol:

Scuderia Hanseat in Sept 2007. At warp factor 10 my RS4 can just about manage 4 full Nordschleife laps on a full tank, so that equates to just over 50miles & i've done quite a few laps. That trip i spent close to £1000 on fuel.

Was worse in my M5, with the V10 at full chat & what's well regarded as a stupidly small fuel tank, i had to refuel after 3 laps as not enough to complete 4.

Likely the same kind of MPG at VMAX's, as that clears nearly a full tank in a day doing about 15-20 hoons around Brunters.

dont know, dont check, not bothered!

fill it when necessary, drive it appropriately wherever possible.

is says its doing 22.2mpg to the gallon over a long average, mostly motorway.

full tank lasts me about 2.5 days.

I rarely get over 200 on any tank as my commute is short and I don't really ever go on motorways...

The only long trip I occasionally do is up to Liverpool and the average goes down considerably on the M6 toll!
