milege off a crisp £10 note

[Kinsella]

How many miles do you get to 10 quids worth of petrol.

i filled up on monday with 30 quids worth of optimax and done 210miles and now its on red !!! is this normal ?? had the car 2 weeks, and its not been nailed !!

 

[Griff]

Depends on type or roads, traffic etc..

Round town a tenner would get me about 70 ish miles. (my journeys are only a few miles, stop start affairs)

210 miles from £30 seems a bit low but then there's probably another 40 while in the red.

 

[M1TCH]

210/3 = 70

 

[crazycup]

defo only get 65/70 miles out of a tenner...normally showing 29/30 mpg.... shocking isnt it!

 

[LegoHead]

70 miles seems about right. you may as well nail it every where as the only time I see a big difference in consumption is when doing motorway journeys.

 

[D"w!Z]

around 90 to 100 miles i think, which i think is pretty bad considering its a 1.2 8v

 

[Ad]

I get around 80iles of mixed driving out of the civic. which is similart to the clio. Used to get 340 out £40 tank off the clio.

 

[chris_m182]

i put £34 in 3 days ago, done 235 miles so far and trip computer tells me ive got 90 left til next fill up

 

[Blue4Ever]

With mixed driving 110ish

 

[Guy]

around 90ish

 

[ben_p]

65ish

 

[ben_p]

but im always in the red

 

[Adam]

yeah roughly about 65 for me too

 

[bunzee]

About 100 for me

 

[mini ripper]

I know for sure my cup is a lot thurstier than the 1.2 16valve we had before.

 

[edde]

About 70 miles. Depends how you drive.

 

[Andyvalver]

60-70 miles out of the valver

 

[Rich]

Not a clue!

[Chris1.4RT]

I put £38 of Optimax in usually as it tends to be on just below the last white mark when I fill it. (£38 of Optimax equates to about £36 worth of regular fuel.)

From that I get about 280 miles if I'm lucky. So I'm also getting roughly the 70 miles per £10 ratio.

I don't drive overly quick everywhere but it's the cold start and drive 12 miles to work each morning and cold start back home and then to the gym 3 miles that does it.

I try to use cruise control where I can but I don't think it makes much difference.

I'm gonna experiment at half filling up twice a week but I doubt that would add much more than 5 miles to a tank.

 

[sneeks]

Between 85-100 miles from £10 in my 172

 

[Saner]

If i drive extra carefully i can get 400 miles out of a tank, takes about £40 to fill her so 100 miles. although I have done 130 on a tenner in teh past.. coasting was involved tho.

 

[Josh27]

I get around 70... hate it!

 

[Nat8701]

i can see owning a 172 is gonna cost me quite alot of money in pertrol when i buy one soon

 

[Gray]

I get about 80 miles to a tenner in my MK1 RSi.... and ive got quite a heavy foot

 

[fUbAr]

about 85

 

[Paddy_g46]

i used to get 200-250 frm a full 30 pound tank on my rt.

 

[Da]

I get 300 - 350 miles from a full tank (£35 ish) on my lil 1.2 pocket rocket :approve:
