Always hard to say, 40 litres of fuel when i had my XE would get me about 180miles.

So i'd say a tenner, around 50miles because it was so hard to drive like a grandad in an XE Corsa!

Yes, use consistent figures like MPG. Miles per £10 is poor IMO.

If its motorway on a f28 box it will use hardly any petrol as the rpm is so low.
