Purity14 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Just been to visit a friend in Scotland, after servicing my car last weekend. I thought id just drive at 70mph all the way there, and all the way back on petrol. Full tank of petrol at £82 ish. Arrived back home after 763kilometers and just made it, filling the car again at £84.32 About 33MPG? I suspect, and im certainly pleased with that. Has anyone done any better?

I can't pinpoint what I got but I managed around the same going to and from Japfest. I think that is about as good as it gets in a healthy car. How many litres did you get for your money?

Purity14 Posted March 30, 2011 Author Share Posted March 30, 2011 (edited) I think it ended up being 65 litres or thereabouts. I mostly use LPG if I am doing such a big treck, but I just wanted to see how it would compare. That trip would have cost me about ~£55 otherwise Edited March 30, 2011 by Purity14 figured out how much it would have cost on LPG (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
