arghhhhhhhh

not another mpg thread, sam your figures just do not make sense, 430 miles to a tank, has mikey hacked your account? lol
That's only 43mpg or so Dan! I've got 41mpg out of my turbo taking it steady(ish) on the motorway.

it's actually a smidge under 48mpg! (assuming 9 gallon tank)

had 400 to a tank before, 40mpg - got to manchester at 37mpg. worst is somewhere between 17 and 22ish mpg!

You must get more than 9 gallon in, I worked it out to be about 43mpg as I recall. Dan if it makes sense or not, it happened.

DKnight

i get what you are saying but there are variables that could be wrong(wheels, tyres, gearbox error), and user error too


i personally can not see it, but if you say it happened it must have lol

The tanks are 45 litres though I thought, so more like 9.9 imperial gallons.

i've put 48L in mine before, but its a pattern one - might be a little bigger
