1. Fill up the car
2. Set the trip meter
3. Use car
4. Fill up car and make a note of the trip miles and litres put in.
5. Divide litres by 4.54 to get gallons used
6. Divide mileage by gallons used.

Best to average over several tanks to be as accurate as possible

Sorry to argue, but.....

DON'T BOTHER

If you do, you'll either
  • be depressed
  • be accussed of driving like a wuss
Using the calculation above I get between 27 MPG (cruising) or 15 MPG (having fun).
