Improved Mpg!

[kaan_ors]

I don't know about anyone else, but the ever increasing price of petrol has actually had quite an affect on my MPG. I now think twice about racing, (er, I mean playing!), other cars or even having fun on my own. I used to get about 200 miles from a tank of petrol but now I'm getting about 240.

Is anyone else the same?

hmmm no not really, don't drive any different from when it was below £1 litre (seems such a long time ago )

(seems such a long time ago )

Although sadly, it isn't! A year, maybe? I reckon fuel's gone up by about 25% in the last 12 months

I think i've read something about when its hot you tend to use less fuel. Something to do with the heat making a power loss to a turbo car, so not as much power =s less fuel being used.

I've just got 250 miles driving to Wales today with some to spare, and was giving it some plenty of times. I think I could of probably seen 300 miles out of my 93 wrx which is pretty standard if i'd drove a bit nicer.
