now before i did this i was getting what i was thinking a really impressive number of miles to £10, so went out last night filled the tank up and worked out how many mile she gets now without the leak 
So heres mine:-
Car - Corsa

Number of Miles to £10 = 135  (EDITED Fuel Price 83.9p)

Thats not even funny  . Did you drive it like a granny to get that or something? Couldnt have been using many revs or anything, as surely it'd drink the petrol then  .
Convering it into MPG, thats
£10= 1000p / 83.9 = 11.9 Litres / 4.5 (litres per gallon) = 2.6 Gallons of fuel used
135Miles / 2.6 Gallons = 52 MPG.
Sorry, but im finding that hard to believe. Some of the new CDTi corsas would struggle to get a figure near that.
i agree, i find it very hard to belive too!

Roads that aren't motorways or towns, at a guess.
I get ~35mpg if I drive hard (which I do most of the time:lol , no idea what that is per £10.
