400-410 to the tank every time, a mixture of driving but mainly around town. I fill up every two weeks.

It depends on how, and where you're driving it. If you're doing a lot of motorway speeds between 60 and 80mph, then the 1.1 will be crap on fuel. If you're just pottering around town then you should be getting more than that. |
My 1.1 is good on fuel even between 60-80mph, obviously better below 60mph but there isn't much that would want to drive on a motorway below 60mph. Always better than town journeys for me.

I did a 140 round trip on dual carraige ways all the way and only used quarter of a tank when I'd normally get a 100 miles to a quarter of a mixture of driving!:)

Now I'm driving 180, from £40 a week to £70! I'm getting very bad fuel on my 180 anyway, I had topped up 8 litres which returned 40 miles only. 8 litres give me about 75 miles on 1.1
"Milage to tank" stops at 20 miles or below and when I compared it to my trip distance, it ran away from it. I am hoping it just the minor exhaust leak that gives me this bad fuel.
