I've not filled up for almost a month, so quite possibly be kicking around 110 here too now, I try not to take notice when driving past.

Last time I filled up, I wasn't quite empty, and remember it being £50 - but I bought a bottle of wine too at the shop, and I can't remember what that cost, so pretty useless tbh

So if I drained my tank and drove like a granny, I could do Kyle intergalatic miles as well

^^ drive sensible in my 2.0 and i can get over 40 mpg, easy. I do most days on the way to work. Id never lower myself to a shitty derv for the sake of an extra 10 or so mpg. Plus its more expensive to buy anyway

250 miles you say? something is wrong there mate. My corsa gets near 90 to £10 down the motorway at 65mph. So that over 360 miles to full tank.

I'm lucky to get 260. Though the last time i filled up, i worked out i got 34 mpg. Which is really good for me. It's normally 31 mpg.

Bit of a bump Fonz - I was working out my MPG to a full tank (although I have never run it down to the red red) and I'm getting about 38mpg.

Just worked yours out, more 48mpg - book figure is 49mpg

Litres * 0.22 = gallons

Miles / gallons = MPG

iirc.

Reset your trip odometer when you fill up, wait till you need petrol. Fill up, get a VAT receipt detailing how many litres
