      I suppose if you add too much extra weight the hamsters under the bonnet get out of breath...

      Doesn't the mod from foot powered to hamster powered hike up your insurance massively?

      why is he sad for starting this thread? It's a valid discussion as nowadays more and more people are trying to conserve fuel and the more miles per tank the better.. I think you will find that a lot

    1.6 Petrol Zetec S, got 40.8 MGG out of her today best ive ever had

    MK4 1.25, rarely do i get anything over 300 miles to a £40 tank

  • Quote

    1.6 petrol - I'm getting 300 miles between fill and the light coming on, so I'm assuming that's 350 to a tank.

    Jamie

    just realised this is in the fiesta section, i do apologise for invading.

    focus 2001 1.6 zetec, definetly not very light footed. 400 in the winter and 430 in the summer from 50 litres.

    so after a bit of maths, that 36mpg in winter and 38.7mpg in summer.

    We just don't like to talk to MK4 Fiesta owners... *shudder*

    I think I average about 350 miles to a tank also. Very rarely is my tank full to the brim though, my car has to function on a half-full tummy most of the time :(

    What the insurance companies don't know cannot hurt them...... :ph34r:

    I think a team of gerbils would be much more efficient, personally. Everyone knows hamster-power is so out dated.

    Stop being ridiculous. We all know Michael's car runs on love. (It's also partial to dents and cheap, unfathomable personalised number plates.)

    Only joking Mike. Also I still like your plate... :D

    Only joking, I still want a private plate... but not dents. :D

    Oi! My car runs on everything good in the world!

    And my private plate is mint, you're all just jealous!

    I only just read this...hahahaha.

    Oops, think this thread has gone a bit OT. I usually get about 350 miles per tank from my 1.6 petrol, maybe a bit less if I'm enjoying myself.
