What you have to remember is its the price of petrol going up making the MPG decline £1.38 a L at my nearest garage and when your low you dont have much choice as that red line alway seems to sneak up on me.

220 miles to a tank is perfectly reasonable with mixed/town driving. My valver gets about that with town/B road driving, hit the motorway and I'll easily get 450-500 miles to the tank  :smiley:

I easily get around 400 miles on a tankful without driving like a christian, but i do find it's better on non-supermarket stuff.

I tend to see about 300-350 from a tank, I don't do a lot of town driving though.
