You are deluding yourself...  If you put 3 times as much fuel in the car (£60) so long as you are doing the same sort of driving it will last 3 times as long as the £20 you put in.  

 

In your Option 2 £20=2-3 days , but in Option 1 you say £60=4-5 days... 

Let's do an easy sum.  in Option 1 instead of saying 2-3 days let's say 2.5 days.  If your drive is the same (AND the fuel is the same price per litre), £60 (same as 3x£20) will last you 3x2.5 days...

 

PS my 2.0l 150 diesel does about 43mpg, on my average week (4 miles each way Mon-Thurs, and longer runs at the weekend).  On a long trip I see it up around 47-48...😁

You may be missing the point that the fuller tank adds weight and decreases MPG. i do the same on my S Max, no point paying to cart around fuel unless you doing long motorway trips
