i am doing a maths project on fuel consumption, trying to prove that there is a general decrease of MPG in larger engined cars, and also that diesels get better MPG than petrol. so if one or 2 diesel drivers would kindly answer the four easy questions i can continue to analyse my results

cheers

so why are you looking at different cars. different cars have different gear ratios, weight differenet amount and have different drag. too many variable to see a difference in mpg that you could directly subscribe to being due to a larger engine

its only for key skills, it doesnt have to be that accurate. its not the results that matter, just have to show the assessor that i can do the work and know how to compare data etc
