You need to post how many litres/gallons of fuel £15 will buy you otherwise no one can compare.

I got 420 miles out of a full tank

8v btw

Was around 87.9p per litre, cant remember what that works out as reguarding how many miles to a tenner though

About right if your thrashing it as well from time to time like alot of us do!

A tenner in my 1.2 16v gets me 80miles, town driving and occasional mad rush foot to the floor driving, late for work etc lol But its hard to tell, you need to about empty the tank, put in 40litres, reset your mileage and see how many miles you get to when your all but empty again mate.

Blimey

Most I've got out of my 1.4 8v is just under 300, but I could be a little more economical I guess & I do hit traffic everyday!

Not a particularly scientific way of measuring.

My fuel consumption has dropped big time in past 2 weeks. I used to be able to get about 110 miles out of £10 petrol (about 91.9 per litre) and about 250 at a push on a nearly full tank - £25 ish.

The other day, I put £20 in @ 91.9p per litre and managed 111 miles before I was back in the redline. This slightly concerned me, as I didnt actually rag the car much at all that week, yet petrol just disappeared far quicker than usual?!
