How many miles to the gallon do you get?

[Turtle]

Hey everyone,

Filled up today, at the price of 93.9p per litre, and I got home and calculated the last tank managed just over 35mph. So im wondering what everyone else manages to get?

Please use Imperial (UK) gallons so:
1 Imperial gallon = 4.54609188 litres :glance:

For those who dont calculate this very often, heres a step by step:

1. Fill the car up until the pump stops *click*
2. Drive the car like a nutter until you feel like filling up again
3. Fill it up to the *click* again and keep the reciept, write the mileage on the back.
4. Go to this website to crunch the numbers >> *click*
5. Log on to your favourite Micra club... this one... obviously... and vote in the poll!

Please do this on an city/urban drive, school/work run or whatever so no crusing at 50mph on the motorway for 300 miles to be the winner fwn

It was 24 recently, however i think its now around 35/40 now. I'l do an accurate check next time i fill up

believe it or not i've just calculated it for the first time since purchase (first time i've used a full tank since i bought the car) and its pulling 46.5 to the gallon!

really cant knock the old girl! I thought it was supping more than i expected, but i was also forgetting the small tank. Got 282 miles out of the last one.

less than 15 on full throttle chasing MR2 turbo's

In the K12 1.2SE I get 49 according to the trip computer I get 49.4, the CC 26.4.....

 

[pietro]

I get about 45-50mpg but the car does have low mileage (less than 30k),

 

[Batch]

"Annual Fuel Costs £744"

"Tax Paid Annually for your fuel £533"

Kind of puts it all into perspective really!

 

[Mat.T]

mine usually gets about 40-50mpg, a full tank usually lasts 320miles

Mark> Don't know what you drive, but keep chasing son- bloody rockets them things i tell you!

[K10]

[1.0supa]

just got 392 miles to a full tank, petrol was 84.9p a litre, but dont know how to work that out

 

[wilsonian]

Before price of petrol went down - was at 93.5 now at 85.9 I was getting about 70-75miles to a tenner.

IIRC i can get 270miles to a full tank.. but then again i do drive to a from work on country lanes so i'm burning more fuel.

 

[lewic]

Worked out mine is doing 25-30mpg, mainly town driving. Grrrr!

 

[stonesie]

To a full tank i get 300+ eaven if i treat her mean a few times.... current tank is at 330 and still going.

worked it out to 47.8 the other week but its improved since:wow:
