another technique for the mileage is to reset the trip info on your satnav and have it on every time you drive and it will record distance driven

or stop worrying about it, you already have a car that (relatively) sips fuel

This is the last time i am going to say this - take a measurement over a complete tank or just don't bother at all.

I'm doing that, I've only gone through half of the tank so far though

I got 195.3 miles out of 25.91 litres. That's 195.3 miles from 5.7 gallons, which is 34 mpg. Considering it left the factory at 43 mpg, I suppose its not too bad bang

I also drive like a bit of a cock

My mum's car has a leaky tank at the moment so can't do a full tank comparison till I change this. With regards to driving it like a rally car, it feels alot more fragile then mine so wouldn't dare! lol.

well a fuel leak will make it use a hell of alot more fuel lol..

even if its low enough to not drip out fuel will evaporate very quickly!!
