I used to average 320 to a tank when commuting with mixed driving and various roads, no motorways but quick dual carriage 'A' roads. Could be higher if driven with slippers and moving the seat back so you can fully depress the gas pedal!

R8NMG will become famous soon enough
Town driving stop start traffic you should get mid to high 200s miles.

Fast country/A roads should get about 320 miles.

Keep it below 3k revs all motorway could see almost 400 miles.

Generally I would 280-320 miles.

When I had mine it was getting around 300 miles from mixed driving, and a whopping 450 when I drove it to Sheffield and back... and that was at 80 - 85 mph

It seems to get more economical at that speed

I regularly turn 31mpg, but have had it as high as 33.5mpg. All depends how fast you drive and how harshly you accelerate (and brake)...
