Fuel Consumption

How much is it costing to fill the tank and how many miles is this getting?

Hello Laura,

It\'s costing me £40/£43 to fill up depending how far I\'ve travelled after the low fuel light comes on and how much per ltr (around .77p as an average ltr).

For me 22+mpg on motorways, not hanging around. If the car didn\'t love the revs and I had more self control I would expect 25+mpg. Been getting any where from 17mpg to 19mpg on the usual type of town/local runs and a fair bit of back road \'enjoyment\' as it handles sooooooooo nice.

Not the best fuel \'economy\' (thats got to be a joke word with this motor Mr Mazda) but I really don\'t care.

My advice to any one worried about the fuel \'economy\' (oops) is DON\'T BUY ONE THEN. Get some thing \'normal\' like an Audi TT, S2000 or one of those Z things.

B gud.

Ian.

Oops, not reading things fully again!

For my £43ish of fuel I\'ve managed about 260 miles and obviously decided not to run it dry.
