Well I calculated it online, £30 fuel, at £144.9 and done 200 miles on it.

I am off to Norfolk in 2 and a bit weeks so will have a completely full tank and let you know the result.

As stated above the light did make an appearance but there have been abit of fuel left.
Let's see what happens in a couple of weeks

I'm 10 mile or 15 mins from Cromer, when you arriving?

If i calculated it right thats about 10 miles per litre???
£30.00 / £1.45 = 20.6 litres
20.6 / 200 = 9.7 mile per litre
i think thats the right calculation.
and i think theres 4.? litres per gallon so yeah 40mpg.

I get about 25mpg on day to day
run. but i only pay £1.39 per litre.

I struggle to reach 25 seem to always get around the 23-24 mark regardless of city or motorway driving and that's with a lightweight fly, which should theoretically increase mpg. Still not complaining its good fun and I get from A to B in good time ;)

I suddenly feel a lot better about the 28-29 I can get out of the 260...

So do I... I didn't say I got that very often ;) Average about 20 around town in it, open road and having fun more like 25.

Best party trick though is 22-23 towing the Midget :)

I used to get 32 MPG on a 400 mile round trip....... driven "briskly" out my last 180

Fred68 07-05-12 10:10 AM

They do vary a bit don't they ? My current 180 with 62,000 on it does much the same mpg as my first 180 did which I bought new in 2003.
