Seat leon fr tfsi petrol 2007 miles out of full tank

[imz26]

I recently purchased a leon fr tfsi 2.0 petrol on a 2007 plate. Out of a full tank of shell v power which costs around £62 from empty the most miles i have achieved are 270 and thats with 70% slow driving but its always short local runs. Its weird how people who drive 4.2 litre petrol cars can get 400 miles plus for a full tank. Can everyone please post how much petrol costs them and how many miles they get. Thanks

They probably have bigger tanks and it's from mainly motorway miles

270 is decent mate, especially if doing short local runs. I get anywhere between 190 and 230 miles to a tank of V Power before the light comes on..... But i only ever do short journeys, stop start driving, and once the car is up to temp it gets driven properly.

By contrast, on a good run i've had over 400 miles from a tank when driving to Belgium last summer.

If you're worried about your MPG you should have bought a diesel

I get 200 mile to £35 of 95ron. would imagine I'd get at least double that for a tank of v power

Im new to owning a sports car, well technically my first proper car, so i dont really know about the average miles out of a full tank, was just seeing if that figure i achieve is normal.

Im not worried about my MPG i was just checking if that figure is normal mate.

I get 300-350 from full tank of V-power, mainly short A-road and round town.
