What does your car do to the gallon?

[greenfordpop]

Filled the Consul up after doing 133 miles to Wheels day and taking 24 litres of petrol, which roughly works out to a shamefull 25 miles to the gallon

If that wasn`t bad enough i had no wipers all the way home

[sab6024]

On my rounds my old Capri used to do about 27mpg and on a run to CF she would do about 40mpg My Fezzy only managed a poxy 25mpg but my old XR4x4 managed about 8mpg the way I drove her

[marky4]

don't know as never worked it out but i know it's not alot as i'm always filling it up

[Guest chriscapriman]

i've once got 520 miles off a tank with the capri (60 litres) , that was motorway trip liverpool to brighton to ford fair and home last year, pumped up tyres and sticking to 70 on't clock but including 5 laps of silverstone had a jerry can on the way home, which never needed using

 

my mate was shocked this weekend when i said we'd be goin in the capri, i had to assure him it would use less petrol on a motorway slog than my daily '03 fezza 1.4 16v so to prove it, we filled up, done 120 mile round trip to pick some wheels up, filled up at the same pump on the way back, used 16 litres wasnt even taking it easy, was racing with a saxo at one point on the m6 usually i get around 100 miles to £20 around town and hoofing it

[Trevmk3]

in the mk1 escort that i used to have i managed to go 70 miles on a full tank when i was booting it back from a meet up near Wigan, think most of it was burnt up on the cat and fiddle and them from Buxton to where i live, thirsty work them hills . the cortina is pretty good, can get around 280 to a tank if im cruising down motorways

[SebringRS]

Not sure the MPG on mine, but its cheap anyway because it only takes 15 quid round my way to fill the Mk1's original tank

[Fiesta Steve]

Double figure miles per gallon is gay

I average about 21mpg in mine on a run, which I dont think is too bad for 380bhp

[RUSTYPUP]

Went to Alton Towers yesterday. 400 mile round trip. 4 people in the car. 26 MPG. Twin 45s are not so bad eh?

[BIGKEV]

[jamesmk1]
