Done 18K and never checked, but will fill it tomorrow and let you know. However, my driving is local and when I home I tend to lean on the right foot a bit...
200 miles per tank, Hmmm; I'll need to start free wheeling down the hills I think!

Hmmm, funny you should say this. I'm just monitoring mine at the moment and I put £45 of super in last week. So far i've done 215 miles and it's just below the 1/4 mark.

Must admit, i'm finding it a great deal more thirsty than my old My99 uk.

Sti7 Full decat, Ecutek remap
Normally get between 19 and 24 mpg, predominantly short journeys.
On recent long journey from Aberdeen to Surrey - fully loaded, 3 adults, 1 child, boot and car packed tight - 29 mpg - steady 85mph, until I hit the M4 and everyone drives at 90+, then it was steady 95.

Around 22 mpg although occasionally creeps up to 24 mpg on long journeys. My old My99 Turbo used to average around 24 mpg!

When people are saying a 'full tank',do you mean until the orange gauge comes on?
Aaron,how on earth do you manage to get 350 miles?

Mileage per tank very variable depending on driving style.

Normally around 210-220 per tank (very full to orange light on) but can be as low as 180 and high as 280-300.

I never see more than 185 whether motorway/urban etc.Was just wondering whether something was wrong or is it just that I'm running so much boost?

Used to get about 220 ish from a full tank. But the council have decided to do two set of road works on my journey to and from work, now I only get 190 miles. I never realised the queing used so much more fuel.
