Same here mines a 1.4 8v and I normally get about 100 miles outta 20 quid round town, tho tbf on long runs a can get 200 miles outta 20 quid and if I really drive carefully about 250 miles maybe abit more. Suppose at the end of the day it all comes down to how you drive your car lol

I get about 220, I have a 2004 1.4 8v automatic, I blame my heavy foot lol! But to be fair I filled up and tried to be more economical but there was no difference. Driving in London so stop start traffic and a lot of short journeys.
Wish I could get around 300 miles
