How much do you spend on fuel a month?

[sam_clio182]

About £150 a month that's going too and from work and social use averaging at best 34mpg a lot less if the heavy foot comes out

 

[Dave..]

Start of the year I spent £500 a month on petrol, going to the girlfriends every night. Since becoming single, changing jobs and breaking the Clio, that figure has become £0. I have never had so much free money!

 

[geordieracer]

According to my bank account money tracker thing, £134 in September. Seemed a typical month.

 

[Jordanb29]

ive got a 1.2 and manage to spend about £180-200 a month on fuel :|

 

[Sir_Dave]

Thats bat balls insane.

Doing that kind of mileage would a diesel be better? Or just because hero you want to M3, Trophy, R32 it right up.

lol, just because hero really. Although i dont smoke, do drugs or drink a great deal, neither do i spend £200 a month on some poncy shirts or designer jeans, so the extra money on fuel is my little treat per month

 

[Advikaz]

£75 a week in my 200. 35mile round trip a day & social @ weekends.

 

[roland rat]

£240 each month FMJ!

 

[Rob]

Honestly I don't even keep track because it'd piss me off.

I drove like miss daisy yesterday and today because I couldn't be bothered to go to the petrol station and I've made over 40 miles on the light. Miracle.

 

[Hixle]

Same. Maybe that's why we're both so shocking with money? I'd guess at around £250.

 

[Rob]

Maybe baby.

I do know that the difference between driving carefully, and like an idiot is greater in this car than any other I've owned.

I have two choices, either hello 33mpg or hello 8.....

 

[Hixle]

The valver's good on fuel really. At least it looks like it is...Stays on 3/4 tank for AGES, then lasts 5 minutes when on 1/4. Lol.

 

[EllD90]

Usually a tank of V Power a week = £300 a month. Fuel is a b**ch!

 

[Pedro19]

£60 a week, work and back. so £240 a month just to get to work and home. £20-£30 weekends, so A LOT! :/

 

[Cerrone]

£280 a month! And I have a works van! I just love weekend drives!

 

[Truffs]

I do at least £100 per week, just on the commute

 

[scotty10]

if i had read this thread before buying i would of been put off and i spend around £80 and thats only if im out a lot i use the misses car for those short shitty drives

 

[Scattle]

I use a tank a week so £260 a month, but around half of that is Business Mileage as I use my car for work.

 

[devilsadvocate]

Maybe £150

 

[cliosport197iow]

Im spending about £280 a month a full tank a week im only getting 28mpg from my 197 how r people getting it so hi my right foot isnt that heavy

 

[ThomasBrentnall]

Arround £200.. in my 1.2 -__-

 

[mjf93]

£140 a month, about 250 miles a week running on supreme unleaded to uni and back twice a week, and the rest just pootling about lol

 

[Sir_Dave]

if i had read this thread before buying i would of been put off and i spend around £80 and thats only if im out a lot i use the misses car for those short s**tty drives

Umm why, some people do 3k miles miles a year, some do 30k. Stands to reason that some will spend more on fuel lol.

 

[Munson]

IMO quite a few people on here reset their mpg at 55mph behind a lorry on the M1, stay there for a hundred miles, and then tell CS that's what they average.

 

[Rob]

28 mpg from a 197?? Seriously?

The z4 gets 27/28 on massively mixed driving. Blasts, motorway, commuting...

FLOL

What does the RS do within those parameters Munson?

Man after my own heart. Except when the missus forces me to buy clothes. Women will be the end of me!

 

[Munson]

Probably about 35-38. Real world, I average c.24

Oh s**t, have I surfaced in an mpg thread?? Dive! Dive! Dive!

 

[richd]

£200-£300

 

[BigDaveRotary]

An average of 24...obviously not trying hard enough to waste fuel and kill the atmosphere! Gogogogo!

 

[DrR]

£402.91 apparently at the moment.

 

[Kyle 86]

£ 60 of V-Power a month its only a weekend toy

 

[IcebergRS]

About £300 a month in my BMW 325 and about 280 a month in my 172 but work pay for my fuel in the 172

 

[welshname]

I get circa 22-24 mpg from the fiesta. So yeah, could probably afford to run a much faster car...I was speaking to TEG about it and his scooby gets more.

 

[Oldtimer49er]

Around £100 in the 200 per month, which i,m glad about, around £600 per month diesel in my works van , company pays for that lot.

 

[Coby.]

Around £350 a month which is mainly commuting costs

 

[It's.Lee]

Put about £60 a month in the ATR. Cycling to work and the shops is the future.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Put £55 in the Exige earlier, that'll probably last me the month

 

[birubhai]

£450-500/mth. Cover 2500 - 2800 miles /mth.

You could afford the zed then, and less goes wrong

 

[welshname]

Just a shame my insurance would come with a years supply of vaseline and a pot of sudacreme (sp) for afterwards.

 

[G3 NYX]

£250 a month
Damn this turbo!
