Got 68.3/68.6/67.7/68.2 mpg 'first click to first click ' mostly at same pump over last four thankfully so fair to say Im averaging around 68mpg I think ! Indicated was 79.6 on last tankful but I've gotten as high as 100mpg on out and back 80mile total daily commute and rarely get under 80mpg indicated .I think I once did a tankful at around 86/76mpg indicated / actual .
Did 498 miles but had around another 20 miles left in her this week .Refilled to first click with 33.18 litres .
I'm starting to think even the same brand of fuel can vary in quality /smokiness .Tesco is just about ok if used in same week but got smoky (?) on me after a week of the car sitting while on hols .If you've got a station you like Id say keep using it .My local Maxol seems to be far better fuel than the super cheap 'busy' one I refuelled in this week .Could be temperature changes also - just my random opinions .( Unscrupulous retailers petrol('stretching') as well as diesel now are both often causing serious engine trouble here in Ireland in last year or so )
At the end of the day I'm driving very gently and was getting 70mpg back in the 90s in charades and 106s/AXs ....Are the very latest MINIs etc any better than Panda ?
