Anyone beat my MPG record?

Post by Mouse_GTI »

46.12 MPG :D

That was driving to Glasgow and back from Aberdeen at around 55-60 all the way with occasional town bits. Took 28.14 litres to fill back up after driving a total of 285.5 miles

My lowest is 28.0 mpg but thats planting my foot right down all the time around town. Think I had 210 miles to a full tank. Haven't done it since and don't intend to, lol. I average about 33-34 mpg now. The most I've had out of a full tank is 385 miles and 130 of that was motorway driving, rest was town (urban).
