Hi, Put in £60 and filled the car up. Quarter a way through my tank now and I have done 80 miles. So by the time its empty it will be 320 miles. Is that good? I fly through that. Nearly once a week Thanks JD EDIT: Its a 1.9 Diesel btw

Lol all I know is something other than my car is drinking my gas.

And no I dont think thats good... Im sure I was talking to someone else on here with a 1.1 and we both fill up £40ish and he gets about 300 miles I think he said. I dunno how many miles I get my clocks p***** up right now so some days I apparently dont travel and others ive driven to the moon and back, all the while travelling the same distance everyday.

EDIT:
Infact heres a pm I got sent for the 1.1

Well, i normally fill up before the last quarter, and that costs me around £35-40. It'll then last me about a week and a half with the daily commute. About an hour driving every day. Sometimes more.

I generally aim to get 300 miles out of the first 3 quarters before filling up, but it's not happening atm. I'm lucky to 280.

So I would say no its not good?? Someone correct me if im wrong

320 miles, Jesus...I can get over 600 on a motorway haul, about 500 cutting about town.

Hmmm - I got about 400 out of my 1.6 - around 330 of those on Motorway - and that was with a fairly heavy foot.

Ignore the guage, it's a guide that's all. Brim the tank again and get your caclulator out to work out your MPG.

You have to remember the tank isn't square - which makes reading the gauge as Ed said a guide only. I have found with the top quarter, I got about 100miles while the third quarter I can get 150miles. Edward - I would guess your Jetta will be the same, does it stay at full on the gauge for 100miles and then start moving?

I guess they are all similar...I say they have V shaped tanks.

I get around 300-350 from my 1.4 8v to the tank, problem is I only do town driving so it's always stop and start driving.

You need to find somewhere cheaper to fill up. Wink

Wheres the cheapest in Evesham..? I won't use the one up by the Police Station and only fill up at Tesco or Morrisons.

It's not long now till the SW is on the road so roll on the diesel and 500+ miles.
