Miles to the gallon

by **Sumo** » Sat Oct 23, 2004 9:34 pm

Just fiiled V5UMO, now that I'm giving it some beans my last fill was 36.6 litres at 102 miles giving 12.75mpg, has anyone done lower on the road? :?:

I thought mine was bad. I normally get 17-18 mpg round town. :shock:

My worst was about 16 mpg.

That's certainly some stick you've been giving it!
I get 170 miles to a tank, whatever that works out at.

If you're filling up with about 50 litres of fuel you're getting a bit less than me i think.

That is full chat wherever possible, we do have some good roads around here, plus I dont finish work until late so its usually quiet aswell.

15 MPG! And that was on a good day.

I always forget to try the water spray, gangsta uses his a lot so he should have some low low figures :!:

I've started using mine properly now thanks to Gangsta, although I must admit it's a bit daunting reaching for the button at 130 over the country roads!

Disclaimer I have never driven my car above 70mph, the above figure is for bragging purposes!! :lol:

lol ... my record is 7 miles to the gallon - a day where I did a whole tank going to bluewater and back via a few mates houses. After warming up I put on my trance music and nailed the beast all day. The best

Just think of the fun your having though,
I always remember what a mate once said, He had an old Volvo which was worse on fuel and had NO performance or one that had a petrol landrover which was worse at everything.

Also I had a petrol boat that did 3 miles to the gallon, thats about

I suppose that`s very true D3ave, that`s it is a pleasure even though it`s costing all of us a bloody fortune in Optimax.

I`ve had to rob Peter to pay Paul like say, the money for other things has zoomed right outta the exhaust pipe! Same old applies...........fun costs!!!
