Just checked mpg over 479 miles, motorway and town driving, gives 41.19 mpg.
Happy with that. :whistle::whistle::whistle:
:):):)
Been getting just below 40 recent, damn knackered wheel bearing and seized calipers! :(
All fixed now so should see low 50's again! :D

Awww .... you make me feel bad now. :cry:
Sorry Pete .... you know I'm just jealous.
All I've got to offset my 260 miles on a tank is the awesome V6 growl.
my mpg has been low 40's for a while, been using the loud pedal far too much recently - esp as i want to see the differnce with the car now it dont smoke :)
i suspect this tank will be pretty poor too as i wont be filling it up until after my remap at Matt's on friday!

Think with a derv you can go for mpg, or fun, I've gone for the fun and I'm still pleased with the mpg that it returns.
:-D:-D:-D:-D
yup i agree there Peter - I wonder if i will ever beat my 32mpg record :laugh:

dont know lol
I am guessing that will be 45-50mpg. the ZR tank apparently shows being empty before it is - they are supposed to be a 55L tank i think.
And Peter, the 32 mpg tank was indeed fun.... tho very naughty too.....
