See you have a Phase 1. 32.6 is pretty good as is 29mpg on short runs.

60 litres would cover 550 miles in my 1.9D S40. Worked out using the past 10 weeks of mpg calculations every time I've filled up. Sadness at it's best lol.

550 is pretty good. I'm hoping I can get 400 miles from one tank

My Elise has a 36L tank and I seem to fill that up less often when I'm using it for the same journeys.

That's pretty dam good for the original 1.8 1996 engine. I should be able to get at least 480 then, if my driving is smooth enough
