If I drive with a heavy right foot, 120 miles from £10 (about 42mpg).
How come you know the mileage you do in KM and not in miles?

If your car is a UK car, then your odometer is in miles. the KM/H applies to the smaller numbers on your speedo. KM/H is a measurement of speed not distance.

87.9p/litre, fcuking hell. I'd rather pay 79.9 and put normal unleaded in.
If my car didn't take diesel (81.9p), that is.
