no, wait until the petrol light comes on and you'll note down the mileage you got then add 50 miles to account for the petrol still left in it.
then fill up
Take the guesswork out, run it until the light comes on , fill to top, make a note of the total litres you put in, run it until the light come on again.
Now divide the total miles by the litres then multiply by 4.5 this will give you your miles per gallon.
My car takes 39 litres I get roughly 360miles before the light comes on (a lot of dual carriageway miles to get to work).
360 divided by 39 = 9.23 x by 4.5 = 41.53
My car is a 1.2 I average 45 to the gallon.

oh and to answer the question, I usually get around 300 IIRC...could probably get alot more than that if I drove sensibly but I dont think I could manage a whole tank without a 'spirited drive'
