I travel 6 miles to work and 4 to my girlfrinds so most of my journeys are dead short and around town and I get 35mpg (min) from a tank. I also appear to have a lead block where my right foot should be If I throw in some long motorway journeys I can get 40, my best was around 45 from a tank.

To be getting 30mpg out of yours indicates something isn't up to scratch with the car, but then I'm not expert so I could be talking crap

I have a 1.6 leon, for usual driving i get about 70 miles per £10/10 litres. If i have a bit of a heavy foot it drops down to around 60 miles. Stick 10 litres in when the fuel light comes on, drive sensibly and report back with how many miles you get!

yeah i know. i just fill it to the first click then when it gets near empty fill it to the first click again then see how many litres its taken then work out the mpg that way, i now do this without looking at the price robbing
