No, just a good mechanic at a good garage who can sort out the fuel management to such an extent that it runs 300 miles on a tank :D

Donnington round trip was about 260-270 for me. Managed 342 out of that tank, no VTEC just sensible motorway cruising, and it took 46.33 litres to refill. I make that about 32.8mpg.

Btw - nice avatar, Chris 8) xthumbup

Wait a minute here; All I get from a tankfull to the reserve light with 100 Oct is 320 "Kilometres" NOT "Miles".

What am I doing wrong here :roll:

City driving with mild v-tecing.

that will be miles not kilometers. When the conversion is done for the speedo it automaticaly does the odometer as well, so you will find that it will be 320 miles :D

They still run in "kph" in cyprus too Dan.

320k is about 199miles so you are pretty low to average.

Yeah, still Kph in Cyprus and 350 Kph is max I got without V-tec action. Listen to this though with 100 Oct I got about 30-40 Kilometres more on the odo rather than the 98 Oct.

I still believe that conversion or not the odo reads KpH.

Has anyone tested it with actual road distance. I gone a do mine next time I am out there. :)

Well chuffed, just filled up on 290miles! :D

Last 20 may have been on the warning light though, as that was the nearest Shell :? :oops:

Won't be doing that again, but nice to know that I can get a respectable distance from my tank :)

Shame about the £40 it cost me to fill her :cry:
