Just managed to get 265 miles out of my MY 95,s tank (50 litres)
My best yet. Ok I admit to driving like a cissy for most of the week but I did manage some "heavy foot" stuff.
Is this good or just average ?

Cheers

Don't know - but it sounds boring
I usually get 250 miles out of a 60 litres with my foot down, and I know which I'd prefer

Cool

265m on 50L is only 23mpg, not that good really !!

Tops I ever got was 30mpg with NO overtaking what so ever.
Pretty hard in NZ with all those overtaking lanes.
Don't do 30mpg too often, it's too hard not to overtake !!

Used to average 12 mpg on the way to work in the UK,
some nice back roads in semi rural Berkshire !!!
