Derv mileage
 
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!

peterzs 17-03-10 05:08 PM

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

p_b82 17-03-10 08:12 PM

yup i agree there Peter - I wonder if i will ever beat my 32mpg record :laugh:

Steves Cleenz 20-03-10 04:39 PM

well that is the first big run my van has done since having it, i got 450 mile to a full tank, dont know what that is MPG

peterzs 20-03-10 06:25 PM

Hi Steve, what does your tank hold???

:wave::wave::wave:

Steves Cleenz 20-03-10 07:30 PM

dont know lol

p_b82 21-03-10 01:46 PM

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.....
