lol @ £30 to fill tank! Thats tiny. Even the Corsa B was bigger than that! quite suprized by that!
306's have a 62 litre tank!!!!! Unsuprizingly it never gets filled to the top
And yes, 3.5k @ 70mph is appauling. That must drink the stuff on the motorway!!!! Under 30mpg from a little 1.2 supermini is terrible! I used to cain my 1993 1.2 8v and still get 30+mpg.............

Noonster I have a pipercross induction kit, and ecotek valve on mine, It sounds a bit better not much the BFO cones are more throtier (Spelling) and get slightly better induction noise.
I get about 280 - 300 on a full tank of petrol cost about £30.00 @ 0.75.9.
