After a full tank of V-power driving a non-stop 15 mins (under 50mph) journey to work each day and and a good few journeys of giving it all it has... the best I've had it up to so far is about 38 and around 300 miles from the tank.

All of the above figures are untouchable (in my opinion) from normal unleaded.

I have cruise control fitted from TTS, thats with K03s,TIP, FMIC, DV, Panel Filter, D/P & sports cat.......... I easily get 40mpg on motorways doing 70 and can stretch 400miles out of a tank if conservative........but when dual carriageways appear it prob averages out about 250-300 miles per tank.

Wow i am really impressed, especially considering the
mods some of you guys have. That has filled me with
confidance just knowing that the running of one wont cost
me a arm and a leg. Yeah overall they seem like pretty good figures
cheers guys:)

from a tank the best mpg I've had is 47mpg...with remap, full exhaust etc but most of the tank was with space saver so no more than 50mph

Now I have k03s combined driving is 25mpg, motorway cruising at 80-90 is about 32 mpg.

Fully booting it will see under 20mpg tho.

400 miles? bl00dy hell! That must have been conservative... mines never been over 300 and that's a tank of driving like a *****!

Good going that...

Easy 40mpg on a run, mostly using cruise to it's full benifits

average commuting recently has been 34-36mpg, half on derestricted single carriageway, 1/3rd on dual carriageway - zero traffic

yes, as mork says easy 40mpg.
Ive seen it read 465 miles left in the tank before, but there is only so much you can drive at 70mph with a clear run
