CW Edition 30, my first tank of petrol, 382.5 from 54.60 litres
« on: August 20, 2010, 02:29:19 pm »
Picked car up on Monday, have just finished my first full tank of petrol 382.50 miles from 54.60 litres.

So wondering if this is great mileage from a tank?

Cheers

If you do the math you're getting approximately 31.84mpg.

Depending on your driving habits, you should be able to top that.   :smiley:

Must try harder. I reckon at 25mpg you are really enjoying yourself.  :laugh:

PS. Before anyone says it I do get more than that in the 'Fridge'.

I only get around 280 -300 per tank  :confused:

I think either me or the car must have issues...  :chicken:
