300 motorway 100 broads me the wife 3 kids boot full of cr?p is that good going

 

Are you sure that's Km's not miles

I've owned 4 Imprezas (2 Jap & 2 UK) The best I've ever got of a tank is 250 miles

think theres summat wrong with your car
thats good going tell us the secret

 

thats gtta be kilomteres i get about 160- 170 out of a full tank atm not even my can does that and thats takes 85pound till fill it up

 

my can i meant my van

 

Is your fuel pump broken ? thats nearly 40mpg !!!

 

he didnt say it was in a Scooby and we all know its impossible unless hes on the back of a tow truck for 100miles +
tank holds about 10 gallons divide by 400 gives 40mpg possible on a test bed but not on the normal roads

 

Maybe he lives near lots of hills

 

Last week I travelled down to Glasgow from Inverness and back again, I filled up first thing in the morning and set off. 9hrs and 375miles later I was back in Inverness on the orange light I reckon with about another 20 miles left in the tank. Average speed 65-75 and 2500-3000rpm couldn't believe it normally get about 250 to a tank.

 

I can get about 350 miles out of a tank on mine on the motorway. So it goes to prove that subaru's can be economical.
But through the country roads by me i can empty a tank in about 50-60 miles

 

My wife borrowed mine a while back when it was running a VF24 and an aggressive map.
She managed to get 375 from a full tank to the amber light.

I managed 225 if I was lucky.

It's all about how you drive it.

 

2 months ago we did 1200 miles on 3 tanks . But it was rubbish. all the way 70mph Anyway I'm proud of my Scoob

 

It's definitely possible to get 400 miles out of a tank of fuel in a turbo Impreza - I've done it twice. You need to travel at a steady 60 mph with no stops, though. Possible, but not practical.

 

BTW, A UK classic Impreza's fuel tank is just over thirteen gallons, not ten. This makes it in the region of thirty-four mpg.

 

Thats what I thought - a 60 Litre tank ....... but I can only EVER get 42 - 43 Litres into the tank!! Even leaving it until after the light comes on.

I think I have a 45 Litre tank, which is 10 Gallons.

I get about 300 miles out of a tank, thats from 'click-off' on the pump nozzle to 'light-on' ...... which is around 40 Litres - 34mpg.

 

i couldent belive it my self fellas on motorway i was doing no more than 70, and im a long distance trucker so im a better driver than you lot

 

Oh my god,you lot so have the wrong cars! Why on earth are you driving these type of cars if you are so worried about economy?

 

I was driving to Scotland so it made more sense to do 400 miles one tank rather than nearly two - which is closer to my normal economy.

As I said, possible but not practical.

 

most i'v managed to get in the tank was £55 of tesco 99 98p was very close to running out,got 305 miles and was very close to running out again,i know it's not good running on nearly empty btw ,i dont plan on letting it happen again
was driving on motorway to work and back around 100mph going there and 80 coming back,apart from the last 10 was about 50 .am not a morning person.
i'v not got the wrong car i just should of bought a cheep van for work instead of an exhaust and other bits,i dont like paying around £70 to work, thats including the weekend

 

If i wanted to do a long distance journey or even a moderately short one,i would use the mrs A4 2.0 avant 2litre tdi, I bought the subaru for FUN!

 

I kid you not brothers and sisters,my previous weekend car was a tvr griffith and (whilst it was working) did better mpg than the scooby.so please don't go on about what you get from a tank,just enjoy your car!

 

I bought my MX5 for FUN!!

40 mpg there

 

PS LEWIS,is it possible to book an appointment with you? Just a short back and sides please!

 

£50 fuel to fill up MY07 STi and I get 210 miles to the tank.

G

 

Good for you - We can only afford the one car.

 

well i know i can get 200 miles on a half in mine, willl find out on sunday if it can do york to cornwall one 1 tank 386miles
