110 miles from £14 of fuel... I had to drive with a light foot to get that much out of it too. 2k rpm in 5th mostly! petrol my way is 1.11 per litre.

Not bad. I get about 80 miles from a tenner of normal 95 @ 113.9. That's normal driving.

if you get around 70-100 miles for £10 of petrol. your gettin good miles per gallon.

All depends on how heavy your right food tends to be

So thats about 40mpg? not too bad. I used to get a little more out of my 1.4 on the motorway, but not on any other roads.

300 sounds about right. mk3 tank is about £50 (just over)
