278 miles to a tank


Recommended Posts

Best I've done in the STi is 320 and that was with only 4 miles on a dual carriageway (Kintore to Inverurie and back). All the rest were on A and B roads, though with quite a light throttle.

I normally average about 240 - 260 per tank for about 55 litres. I've learnt I can drive home and back to ABZ (30 miles) just after the low light comes on if I take it easy. Does cough and splutter if you let it get too low though!

Worst I've had is about 80 miles from a tank, but a large part of that was spent going in a clockwise direction on full throttle [:D]

This is my best ever miles out of a tank.

Drove to durham the other week, mostly sticking to the limit but the odd blast on dual carriageways now and again[:D]

I took this picture when I got back up the road just before I filled car up with vpower

Usually getting around 250 just now.  First tank lasted 320!  Woot!  But then I was being careful and it included a 5hr drive up to Brora and back.

 

But hey I like  challenge!

Not done much long runs but been averaging 24 to 25 to the gallon and thats a and b roads. On the first inverness meet a dont even know what mpg a got.

Think the most ave seen out of 50 ltr as been filling her up on or before the light is 250 ish.

Nae sure about fuel...................I must be a freak cos I love filling up and watching the OB / V-power cocktail pour into my chariot.

At a guess I'd say circa 250 miles to a tank

MPG = Miles Per Grin
