Bush Tucker Man:
Well I've surprised even myself :shock:

Over the past week, I've done a fair mixture of running about, school-runs, city-centre, motorways, green-lanes, pottering around the foothills of the Pennines, fast country A-roads (Stump Cross, via Pateley Bridge  to Ripley, for one)

Topped up yesterday at ASDA after nipping in for a few items & only 95.9p/litre

212.4miles
27.35 litres
When converted gives= 6.017 gallons

MPG = 35.29  =D>


My usual averages vary betwen 30 & 32, so that's not a bad figure, I don't suppose?

SteveG:

Overdrive

Bush Tucker Man:
Just topped up again, well the second time since the initial posting.

I got a 32MPG on the last one

Just called again on way back from builders merchants

170.4miles
21.91litres = 4.820gallons
35.35MPG

I'm happy with that (again)  \:D/

We've been getting 32 out of the TD, not bad going for a 17y old engine with a small fuel leak.
