right ive checked my mpg as i thought it was low but im now thinking i got quite a good outcome?? i have never used v power before so opted for 30quids worth (23 L) that got me 150miles of mostly town driving, and quite a heavy right foot on a few occasions this week.
results
28.64, covering 150 miles using 5.24 gallons of fuel.
thought that was quite good???? thought it would be alot less.... does my decat make any difference as i thought it would make it less?

I'm quite clearly doing something badly wrong in a Corsa then!

the skyline.....
Prob gets about 2mpg.... we went through about 110litres in an hours and a half...
5 laps + 8 laps + 13 laps and the tank was in the red..... each lap is 2.2miles.... add a few for on/off laps (say 6)
6+5+8+13 = 32 * 2.2 = 70.4 miles....
110l = 24.1 UK Gallons
miles/gallon
2.9 MPG 
Navara does about 23 towing the skyline, and 30 without it.
911 prob low 20's
