Question
A quick question for all P1 owners on here.

How many miles do you get out of a tank of SUL / Optimax?

cheers

Paul

Good trip 280 - 290 miles on about 54/55 litres of Esso or BP SUL bad trip 210 - 220 miles on the same amount of fuel.

But hey, remember the fun you had achieving such poor results!
