I got 170 from a tank in mine

I'd expect ~350 to a tank, so you're about 45 miles off what you should be IMO.

What me? It's mixed - My trouble is I drive to town and do short journeys all the time. I don't go on the motorway much, and when I do I drive fast... Think that's why it's so low to the tank!

I got 170 to the first ever tank i had in it

when I had the sleeper, was the same case for me.

Get near enough 300 miles from my 1.6 sport when I've put in a full tank (around £37).

So probably about 160/170 miles for £20..
