New Record

[sharon_mccall]

Just got a whopping 243 miles out of my tank of fuel.

Incredible! Very happy with that

[scoobyseller555]

thats amazing a whole 22.09 miles 2 the gallon...well done

[colinj]

Thats pretty bad...for a sport is it not!!?

I get about 200 to a full tank!

[Fee]

I have no idea what I get

....it always seems to go down quicker when adam's driving though

[RA Dunk]

havent got a clue wot i get i just top it up when it needs it

[weeb]

a get 200 ish oot a tank!! sharon u should get nearly double what turbos get!

maybe need to put ur right foot on a diet, obviously its too heavy!!

[zeolite]

Maybe you should take the handbrake off as well.

It shouldn't be that bad even if you are caning it. When was it last checked out?

[Gumball]

i just got 237 in the go go machine and that was caning it a good bit during the week.

try letting the gears change before you hear that rev limiter kick in and bounce at 7800rpm

[RS Grant]

I cant believe the economy you're getting in that Sport..... Not too sure what D4WGY is getting in his to be honest.

But I suppose 130bhp pulling round an Impreza with heavy 4WD etc.. its never going to be the most economical car around!!

Cheers,

Grant

Sharon just sell it and buy the ignis... just as quick and better on fuel.. And had one careful owner

How much m8???

[UK300_Impreza]

I get 250 - 260 to a full tank before the wee orange light comes on

[imprezapete]

Hmm I usually manage about 295-300 to a tank. When I'm in gumball mode I have done about 140miles to a tank

[UK300_Impreza]

are you running optimax atol to get 295 - 300

[G.T.]

295 to 300 a tank ffs how do you manage that

[sharon_mccall]

<< 295 to 300 a tank ffs how do you manage that >>

cos him n pete drive like big poofters..lol

[imprezapete]

Yeah thats running Optimax all the time. I recon I get about 265 to 95 Ron fuel I think. Cant tell you how long ago that was as its been a long time since I haven't run on Optimax.

Fuel Figures

Optimax 91.9p x 50 litres = £45.95

295 / 11 gallons = 26.81mpg

1 gallon = £4.18

Unleaded 85.9p x 50 litres = £42.95

265 / 11 gallons = 24.09mpg

1 gallon = £3.90

That means the 30 miles difference is 1.245 gallons difference (Unleaded MPG) which is £4.86 on top of the cost of a tank of unleaded full (£42.95) which comes to £47.81

So to recap it means that it would cost me £47.81 to do the same mileage as my tank of optimax which cost me £45.95.

Simple he drives like a fekin nun

Then i get in the car n he drives like a drunken nun!!!!

Pete u wanting driving lessons??

[sharon_mccall]

Cheers peeps for comments/replies.

Weeb - my whole body is on a diet m8, might help!!

zeolite - have never had the car checked out

Gumball - i don't always hit the rev limiter

I think D4WGY gets around the same kinda mileage in his sport

ScoobyAndy - no ta - i love ruby way too much to part with her

(Oh and i dont like wee cars)

As i said i am pleased with this new record and am going to try and improve that over the next few days!!

[colinj]

Well I get similar fuel economy & im running twice as much power!!

Doesn?t sound right to me....u sure someone isnt siphoning your tank

[imprezapete]

Sharon you using Optimax or Unleaded only?

[sharon_mccall]

Filled up yesterday with the Tesco 97 stuff tho

[imprezapete]

I just wonder if you get any difference with normal unleaded than Optimax.
