My Micra does about 120 miles with £15. Is that about right with fuel prices hitting the pound mark

IIRC i used to fill my Micra on about £20-25 and would get about 200miles from a tank so that seems about right. Obviously it depends on how its been driven etc.

I may be wrong with the figures quoted as its been months and months since i owned the Micra

 

[danni]

i would say its about the same as what i get that yeah

It also depends on what kind of travelling you're doing, if you do short runs or are stuck in traffic then consumption will be bad.

 

[hughes_16v]

or if you floor it everywhere as well, but you will be getting less go-go juice for £15 when your filling up because of the price of it

if you say fuel is 92p/l

then you get 13.8l for £15 (15 x 0.92)

the 13.8L is just over 3 gallons (13.8/4.54)

therefore your fuel consuption is roughly 40mpg which isn't bad but isn't amazing

Takes around £30 to fill me SR and get around 250-280 mark. But been granny driving lately and getting over 300 miles from a tank no problem. Up until half way it goes really slow, after that the fuel seems to disapear.

thats wrong, you get 16.3l of petrol for £15 at 92p/l

Its £15/.92

Also the same with my 1.0 auto, it's the way the fuel lever sensor is set up, it's just crappy. I find that the top half of the guage is closer to 2/3 of a tank.

 

[Ben]

oh and u think thats bad? i get about 200 miles from £30 in my focus

 

[Ed]

get less than that in the ST. with a bit of remapping i hope to break the 200 mark.
