sassy for example, 90 miles off 20 quid (2.0 8v with cam and shite), while marcs scooby is doing 100 (2.0 16v turbo, not standard)
welsh dan, 40 miles? must have a big fuck off hole in petrol tank???
Exactly...find it funny...all these 1.2 drivers etc claiming there getting less than 100 odd miles to £20!!!
Even if thats thrashing it...there is something SERIOUSLY wrong with your car to be getting that mpg...

maybe Pug Nut did get 450 miles for £20 and petrol is just loads cheaper where he lives like 40p a litre or something 
Or maybe he's lying and isn't very good at maths.
Wouldn't it be easier if people said in litres or just how many mpg they get as someone might get 20 litres for £20 and other might get 30 litres to £20 etc.
