[g60jet]

100 miles im the FR TDI!

 

[LCR User]

£10 squid gets us 50 miles, never can get more

£20 gets us a lovley 100 miles

£40 does 200 miles,

All the above is done in traffic jams and "spirited" moments

 

[Cupraboy4]

i get about 90 - 100miles out of a tenner



(it is a tdi thou!!!

 

[schnipps]

tenna gets me exactly 100 miles, i always get 10p per mile, fully brimmed about 48 quid and i get 470-480 miles maximum and thats well past the beeper, never seen 500. No difference in mpg after revo either apart from a ragg it alot more.

Is that petrol FR or diesel?

My tank costs approx £55 to fill up assuming £1 a litre although SUL/V-power is a little cheaper at moment.

If petrol how on earth are you always managing to get 470-480miles? Dont you rev the car above 3000revs

Nah mate its diesel, i doubt id get 300 with the petrol

This would also depend on how long the petrol light has been on for before filling up, or are we talking completely empty, coulkd sttill have a £5 left in,might fill it up at a diffent point????

Hard to say isnt it,i never only put £10 in,waste of time as your only gonna have to keep filling up!

Put the lot in for the week instead!!

 

[Ruddmeister]

I'd say if you can only afford to put £10 of fuel in at a time then forget the LCR and I would suggest an Ibiza 1.2S.....very Frugal

 

[InfernalBadger]

Gonna have to see how much I can get out of a full tank after I next fill up (still on my first tank of diesel).

Reckon I could do over 550 miles if I only drive to work and back (30 miles of motorway each way).

 

[redant]

I get approx 70 miles for a tenner out of my LCR 05, works out about 300-320 miles on a full tank!

 

[panholio]

I only ever put £20 a time in my LCR unless I'm going somewhere. No point in carrying round the extra weight (!) and I only do about 60-80miles a week.

 

[InfernalBadger]

I only do about 60-80miles a week.

I do that every day

Aye about 100-120 miles out of a tenner in my TDI110 Leon depending on driving style. I topped my personal best last week after managing to squeeze 556.6 miles out of a tank - admittedly at least 75% of that was motorway driving at a steadying 80-85. I'm pretty sure I glided into the filling station on the fumes mind you...

 

[warren_cox]

79 miles out of £20 of fuel a couple of weeks ago, but almost all of it was short journeys and around town. I tried it as a test as I couldn't believe quite how bad it had got. Thats 39 miles out of a tenner, but for most of the journeys the car hadn't barely warmed up by the time I'd finished the journey (and the optimax was £1.04 a litre at the time)

Fully Brimmed is a lot more than £48! Everytime I fill up I am putting in 63-64 Litres..! (Though thats with Venting and also driving 40 miles after computer says Zero )

With 63L (around £60) I get around 600 miles.
I thought I would be getting nearer 700 as 600 is only about 43mpg.

 

[InfernalBadger]

Just put £10 in as I want to fill it up from tescos (5p/l voucher ftw).
Will see how long before the warning light comes back on (and scares the **** out of me with it's sound!)

 

[AndyVTR]

I can get 600 on £50. if I vent I reckon I could get 700 if I really tried.

WHAT!!!!! how the hell could you get 700, honestly i could get nowhere near that even 100% motorway miles at 50 i doubt id get 600.

 

[InfernalBadger]

If the trip computer is right (not likely) I could get 720 miles from 63l of fuel driving like I did the other day (average MPG was 52)

Never gonna happen though.

Skill.

I need at least 600 miles a week or I'd have to fill up twice a week. I've had 670 before without venting. Now I can vent and get 600 but with a heavier right foot.
