80 mile out of £30

That's what I got out of the ZS 180 his last week!!!

Granted, because of the performance issues I've spent a lot of that hammering it trying to see if I'd fixed the problem.

What mileage to others get?

22 - 23 MPG for me, however most of that is very short trips to work, tesco and the likes. When I am out on a longer drive its as much for fun as anything else. Last fill up was 197 miles for £56

The 2 track days I've done I'm seeing around 15 MPG on track!

Well if you paid say £1.39 a litre thats roughly £6.30 a gallon.

£30 worth would get you about 4.76 gallons - so - 80 miles is 16.8 to the gallon.

Lot of assumptions there especially how much you actually used unless you brimmed it each time - but if you've been attacking it - sounds about right to be honest.

I reckon I'm getting the same, but I only ever drive it hard and only down lanes and short trips ....

I put £30 in when the fuel light came on, and filled it up again when the light came back on.
