Info only...
just incase your interested, I'm going to do a few MPG tests so will put the findings on here.
Last run to work yesterday was 257 miles used exactly 38.86 ltrs
wich is 8.55 gallons & works out to 30.05 mpg...
down A1 a couple of bye byes to the odd FORD driver and a AUDI TT bit the dust from the roundabouts , average 70-75 and back up the M1 to Leeds taking it easy again 70 to 75
Sixth gear @ 2700 or 3000 rpm average.

Used 2 get 280 miles on a full tank! (motorway & A roads)
Last month filled up with good old optimax & the fuel gauge stayed at half full or half empty 4 about 20 miles, then it started to rise.
Since then i'm only getting around 220 miles!

STi8 - Not PPP - Getting an average combined MPG of about 25. Not too bad I guess, and about the same figures as magazines have given.

Just out of interest I have a WRX PPP and I'm getting between 22mpg and 29mpg depending on my right foot!

hope it will do 30+ on a run driving steady 75mph when novelty worn off and car done few tho miles??

Still can't resist the odd pedal to the metal warp factor feel good factor!

I get between 180 and 240 miles per tank full depending on how i drive. Fuel consumption has to be the worst part of ownership. Especially since my company fuel card got taken away
