I got 197.8 from my last tank. It cost me 37.98 to fill it back up.
The fuel cost me 86.9pence per litre.
I calculate that to be 20.5469 miles to the gallon or more appropriately 19.20121pence per mile.

I usually get 190 miles out of tank, consisting of short trips to work and blasting around in VTEC on evenings weekends.
I did my first long commute since keeping an eye on the MPG and got 300 miles out it, cruising at roughy 80 mph.
On the 1st Lotus day I got 68 miles out of half a tank!
But better stop talking about it before I get accused of being sad. Again!

I AM AMAZED, i must be running something else than petrol in mine,
i get roughly 330 mile from a motorway drive, averaging 70mph.
on the roads, i will always see atleast 290-300miles...
I always use Optimax, and run 10-30w oil.
