--- Quote from: sardonicus on April 24, 2008, 00:28:07 ---I did 600 miles on the motorway last weekend ,cost £90. I think thats over 30 mpg .   Â£60 @ 112p per litre , and £30 @ 115p litre.   can someone work it out ?
--- End quote ---

£60 @ 112p per litre  =  53.57 litres.
£30 @ 115p per litre  =  26.08 litres.
53.57ltrs  + 26.08ltrs   =  79.65 litres.
79.65 litres...............  =  17.52gallons.
600miles / 17.52glns   =  34.25mpg.

that's pretty damn good mileage :clap: :clap: only wish mine was doing as well  :( :(

by the way regarding the original post, £20 @ say 110p per litre = 18.18litres = 4.0gallon, 70miles/4.0gallon = 17.5mpg :shock: :shock:

 Have you had the fuel pump timing checked as this dramatically effect how much fuel you are using, they have been known to move from time to time ?

Range Rover Blues:
 :shock:

Would this be picked up when the timing belt was done?

4 landies:
 It should be but depends who done it, I have known a garage or two that have done a cambelt and pump timing has been out.

 It can be adjusted without touching the belt though.

sardonicus:
Thanks bejay :) That does seem too good ! but the fuel guage was reading just under 1/4 tank start and finish.  not forgetting plus the 0.9p 's  I forgot ! Is pretty bad on trips of only a couple of miles though :(
