How many miles in one tank of fuel

[DustyC]

Before filling up last night (46 litres) I had managed to do 486.5 miles which is pretty good considering my driving (A32 brings on a kinda rush element!).

Thats the furthest I have ever done on a tank in any car (and I expect it to get even higher in this car).

Whats the furthest you have achived on one tank of fuel?

540miles with an Avensis D4D but it was running on fumes when it rolled into the garage!

[Pete Cros]

1054, Toyota 4x4, not on tarmac, (gravel and sand)...........

My last tank (fillup was 60 litres) was 616 miles.

I am doing Basel to London a week on Sunday, and I'm aiming for 700miles :sadgit:

697 miles in a Peugeot 306 DTurbo.

Mind you this was in holiday mode (tootling around) and during the fuel strikes in 2000.

I normally get around 620 from the Bora.

a mate of mine regularly gets 550-600 out of his xantia 1.9 90bhp which is pretty impressive for a car which has done well over 125k miles!

im getting around 350(!) from my 3.0CDTi, im hoping this will improve with the mileage though.

731 best so far in the current Co car: Peugeot 406 HDi (90bhp).

[levensnevel]

currently 500 miles
Volvo 480 Turbo - 60 l fueltank and an ODO reading of 178,060 miles. Not too bad I would say

My old saab 9000 2.3t once managed 130 miles on a tank, flat out across Germany, It was less than hour before I had to fill up again

[JMGS4]

Longest distance for me Edinburgh-Basel Switzerland
via Hull-Zeebrugge ferry 1276km and the tank was still 1/4 full... Audi 100 2.5 TDI and I hooned it across Belgium, Luxembourg France........

[silverback mike]

250 ish in the Jag

[pbrettle]

380 - 400 on a tank for the Jeep - and its a 75 litre tank!!!! Costs about £55 to fill up....

You have to worry about a car that has a trip computer that does DTE (Distance to Empty - range essentially) but also a TIME to empty..... getting into the area of an aircraft....

Less than 100 miles for 3/4 of a tank

Was in the Noble at Bruntingthorpe at the time

Well it's around 650kms to Calais so BSL-LDN should be easily done, especially if you stick to the french speed limits!!!

Y'know Dan, I lost count of how many runs you did that day.

No sooner had I sent you off then back you were again. Same driver, different passenger! Good man!

My car actually ran out of petrol at Le Mans this year, I did a 'U' turn on the Mulsanne straight on the friday morning and it coughed and stalled as the petrol went from one side to the other, a few hundred yards later it died, luckily there were hundreds of Bentley fans who helped push us a few hundred yards to the petrol station. To brim it took 101 litres (thank god it wasnt my round!) and I burnt nearly all of it on that evenings drive back to our hotel at Saumur in convoy with four Turbo R's behaving badly, and a 1928 speed six that we couldnt throw even at 120mph. Usually I get 320 miles to a tank.
