i did over 300 on less that 3/4 of a tank on my 120 on sat

I average 320 to a tank with mixed driving. I did get 450 to a tank ONCE! on holiday, do not ask me how as I have not got a clue, think it might have been a fluke with easy country driving.

Keep the 180 below 3k rpm in 5th on motorway driving and will quite easily getting 350+ miles a tank. I did managed 400 miles once and recently had 350 miles that's including London city driving.

I normally had about 330 from mixed driving, but I've had 400+ on a few motorway trips

Normally 250-280, but once it's gone over 300.

Ive had 600 on my way down to bournemouth but i bottled it and filled up!!

the joys of the diesel! :D

Two weeks ago I got 440miles out a tank driving down the motorway. I reckon I could have got a bit more, but I don't like the petrol light coming on.

We went from Cumbria to East Sussex ( 400+ miles) on a full tank..and that was last year when the petrol was sky high :D

TjP 20-01-09 03:05 PM

:ohmy: I usually fill up after 260 miles at best!

She seems to be drinking a bit more freely recently, but I booked her in for a service on friday so hopefully new sparkplugs and all that shabam will help - either that or they will tell me theres a bigger problem! Or maybe Im just watching the guage too closely.

I usually average around 27-28mpg though I'd say.

On a good run I can see 500 miles, but just going round the houses I get about 420 ish!!

Diesel is the future lol...

grimmy 20-01-09 05:46 PM

I got about 420 once on a run to Alton towers and back with four adults in the car normally i get just over 300 to a tank for normal running about.
