100 miles to quarter of a tank!
Well....
my car = 2002 Impreza STI
I filled up yesterday using Vpower @ £1.15 a litre and thought I would try an experiment - not flooring it and changing the driving style to "relaxed in the sun"
usually I get 70 miles out of quarter of a tank...... today 100 miles
well chuffed.... anyone else experienced anything like this? - I take it the warmer temperatures also have something to do with better mpg?

I'm a bit fed up. Recently I've only been getting 250 miles until the needle hits the final quarter. During the winter it was 300 miles.
