That's not good! You should really be getting closer to 100 miles. Now man up & stop driving like a tree hugging big girl.

Thats alright, in my 1.1 I get 70 miles to a 10er on average. So I'd get 210 miles to £30 I rekon. Get about 80-85 on motorway runs.

£60 gets me a full tank and 400miles in my 1.1. I did the math a while back and thats 36MPG, you're getting 360 miles to every £60 which isntterrible. Are you doing alot of dualies or alot of town driving? Makes a huge difference, i did town driving for a week and came back with less than 300miles to a full tank in stop and start traffic.
