filled mine up last night £40 and drove to southend (85miles from mine)...there and back with doing 125mph twice and ragging around basildon i used just over half a tank.

I think that is a lot but who knows....

my rover turbo 200bhp used to get 350miles to £40 even when i ragged it and done 155mph.

S12's seem pretty juicy


but i love it

i usually get about 25mpg, which equates to 200-250 miles from £40
