During the summer I can get 600+ just don't like letting it get too low as it gets expensive to fill the tank.
Always drops during winter, with FBH and longer warm up/cooler running.
Currently showing 420 to empty and done 150 since filling.
Try to keep speed around 55mph on 25mile trip to work 90% dual carriageway with cruise control set, I know sad g*t but it saves the £,s

I seem to get about 450 from a full tank, which is a slight drop.
Have been doing a bit of off roading which isn't helping though... In loving memory of FA54WSK.
Rest well old friend, your work is done.

That's what I like to hear
In all my time driving through the UK it's not often you see a disco in the inside lane unless it's on the M5 pulling the tin tent. It's funny how on a Friday bank holiday when there heading north to the lakes there doing 80 mph in the middle passing everything.

Just had a drive of the disco, her in doors let me drive it for a change, we got 30.4 avg miles per gallon driving on 30/40/50/60-70 roads, mainly sticking to the speed limit or just below..... I'm happy with that, bet I could get 32+ on a long motor way drive
