What can you get out of a tank full?

[yellerRs]

Just got 455 miles from a tank full of BP Ulti. in my vrs!!!! well impressed, it is standard at the mo. What do you guys get per tank?

[Babs]

I've managed 426, on two 3 hour motorways journey's back to back, but usually in the region of 320ish

[Hammie2k]

I get around 320-350 from a full tank or round town driving. I average abut 30mpg as well so not too bad

[Steevie Wonder]

Normally around 330, but can do considerably more on a cuise

[yellerRs]

I must admit I was driving like a propper F**ny, dont mind that though if it is saving me money on the work run so I can play daft at the weekend!

[andrew_lumb]

these numbers are reassuring, cus mine is about the same :-)

320 ish just driving around into town n that, and can get over 400 on motorway runs.

generally using sul gives 30+ extra miles from a tank on top of the above..

[David 8]

Oh god not MPG thread .........

About 25 mpg stop starting all the way.

Got 35 on the mway yesterday but I was nearly asleep it was sooo boring.

[trundlenut]

About 540 is my best

but then it is diesel...

[Fezboy]

320 town driving

[dzign]

320-340 mixed driving, I got 330miles using only 3/4 of a tank on the way down to Cornwall a few weeks back. I recon I could have squeezed another 40-50 miles easily. Not to bad my cars just done over 116k and not been serviced recently (Just had a full service today!)

[mark_sargeant19]

sometimes less that 250 in my vrs, my lame excuse is its my 1st turbo car and im addicted to boost

[oggy]

I only get 260 if that, but I only do short journeys to work start/stopping & its only warm when I get to the destination. Its alot better on longer journeys averaging about 38/40mpg. I did 180miles a fortnight ago using just only 1/4 ao a tank.

Slighty off topic but just started using BP ultimate 97, and my vrs love's it!! Normally use tesco's 97 (cant get 99 here) or shell v power, car just seems to pull really well on the BP!

So we will discount this reply

Get 320 week in week out

Got 400 the other week when going london and back.

[karlbar2k]

In relation to post 11 + 12 whats the worst you have had???? when I first picked up my 4x4, the trip from south of Bristol to Bridgend I averaged 37. but with lots of effort :-) I have managed to get this down to 16 on a short run (engine already warm) so glad its gone in this weekend for the LPG.

[Mase-dog]

Always run on waitrose super, best run was 46mpg trying very hard on roads with 40 and 50 limits! 350ish sounds about right for a mix of driving. Anything is impressive compared to an impreza, used to run a '98 turbo 2000 and would be chuffed with anything over 220 miles. Gotta love the VRS.

[Octavia Vrs!]

I've emptied a full tank in 54 miles and in under 40 minutes. 4 laps of the Nurburgring and yeah - it was great fun

Average would be about 280 - 310 but on a good run 430 miles has been seen before. Cruise control does make quite a difference and the remap makes it more efficient when cruising but when you put your foot down - oh dear!

[DizMeisTa]

280-310 usually.... never got anymore than that

[funkymonkey]

i get around 340 out of a tank of tesco 99 which cost me £60 going to and from work ,on a run up to newcastle and back the other week i got 400

[Fezboy]

Just a note to add on this thread

What does the tank hold?

I just filled up with 47 liters £55 and that was with with 20 miles left in the tank and light on!

Tesco 99ron £1.16ppl

So that's about 32mpg town driving

[ArosaMike]

Got around 430 miles a couple of times on my trip to Germany the other week which I was pretty pleased with. I get much better MPG on higher octane too which is a good excuse to use it :P LOL I was amazed to find that 95 and 97 Octane are the same price in Germany. It's only Ultimate/V Power/Super Plus that costs more and literally every petrol station has their own version, even the less well known ones!

[Turbo120Fabian]

the best ive had was 450 miles to the tank driving to and from work for a week here in nz, but normally get 400 tho mines just a standard 1.8t manual, running shell v-power

[Malc]
