i was addicted to driving and would make a stupid excuse to go to shops and take a long route 
now with 56 mile round trip to uni i am bored of driving.. cos its round abouts and single/dual carriageways limited to 40 mph

Full tank once per week, unless it's really cold when I go to fill up, in which case it gets a tenner in

So judging by the posts its dependant on how people drive and or weather they can be bothered
I always think that if i have a full tank then the extra weight will bring my MPG down 
Its a chore putting in fuel though when its fucking 102.9 - 103.9 down here, its just depressing.
Any news on when fuel is set to be reduced??

£5 a month, hardly use it 
doesn't seem to last that well on the 1.4 16v, even when driving like a granny

Seems mad, but if you have any family who shop at tesco, for over £50 you get a voucher for 5p a litre, so a full tank becomes a bit more worth it
98p fuel

I used to run the bitch dry and then brim it and I mean, brim it. Used to hold the filler at a funny angle and trickle a bit in for ages whilst rocking the car and peering down the neck intermittently. This was because I hated filling up so much that I wanted to do it as few times in a year as possible.
Fuel is so dear now that I run the car till just before it breaks down and then I put in, in litres (not pounds) what I know i'll need for the next week.
Life's shit
