Never fill my car, too much weight to carry around lol
Usually put in around £30 at a time, but i think i usually get around 40-50 miles per £10 of fuel.

I normally use Tesco 99, but recently started using VPower as i didnt realise it was now 99RON, thought it was still lower, but turns out that was Optimax and VPower was improved :)

Around 340 miles on Shell Super.  I'd say my typical week is probably 70% around town and 30% motorway, so i'm sure that figure could be improved.

Around 700-800 to a full tank, although I always refill to the brim once I get down to the last quarter mark, by which time I have at least 600 miles.

How, I hear you say??
Diesel  :wink:

On a typical work run I get around 75mpg.
If I drive like Miss Daisy, I can get around 86mpg!

In my experience, thats about right for a stg2 - stg2+ car if your enjoying it. And why not enjoy it if youve paid for it.

On my commutes I can usually get between 320-360 from a tank. If I am enjoying the car I usually manage around 220 now I am in the Stage2+ Club.
