Default Fuel Question

Hi All

Had my new 99 T, RB5 delivered on Sunday morning what a car , I will be filling up tomoz as the car had half a tank of fuel left in her on delivery, I drive 12 miles to work and back each day (town driving) and lucky for me I get my fuel paid to and from work , what sort of MPG should I expect from the car, also how many miles are left in the tank when the needle reaches the last quarter segment ????

Cheers Russ

Well I used to drive my 99 uk to work and back each day before I changed job and that was a 30 mile round trip. Used to do about 180 miles a week for about £32 of super unleaded. Quarter mark I would guess about 70 miles with reserve but I never let it run more than half way past a quarter. Hope that helps.
