tank range from 1.2

Sorry if this has been asked loads of times before. Iam new!!!
What range are all you 1.2 owners getting from a full tank of juice. I got my 1.2 active at the end of april, but two weeks into ownwrship i had a nasty altercation with a slab of granite at work and broke 5 bones in my foot so i have not been driving since then. I can resume driving on the 30th june. Roll on!!! Thanks for all replies folks

Re: tank range from 1.2

Not bad. In the two weeks that i had it i had done 220 miles and only used half a tank. If i can get 370-400 miles per tankfull mixed driving then il be happy!!!

Re: tank range from 1.2

what was you doing viewing a new build/ restoration work


you dont have to have builders boots there are smart dress shoes on the market to go with your suit and tie

http://www.arco.co.uk/products/64550...ck_Safety_Shoe


To be honest most of my shoes are toe caped they can also come in handy on a night out if someone decides they dont like estate agents you can give them one right in the cahonas with your foot

Re: tank range from 1.2

no problem if you have a smaller independent tool/safety shop they are often cheaper than arco but arco have more choice..
