depends on my mood - I hate the Southampton to Stoke drive and as such my driving varies and it costs me about £25 to do 200/250 miles so roughly 100 miels to a tenner for motorway drives

Town driving in southampton I spend about £10 per 70 miles, town driving in stoke is £10 per 85 miles

but driving around home (which is b lane heaven) in the middle of nowehere -I get about 25 miles to a tenner

stupid question, £10 does not get you the same amount at every petrol station in the UK

i got 80 miles to a tenner today doing a round trip to london. probably would do a little more but spent most of the trip at 4k rpm at about 70 which i think would use more fuel.

Drives supercharged Tec with torque
