FUEL

[BurgerKing]

Sorry for all the questions: I need to know  :D

What sort of mileage would i get out of a full tank of diesel. 2.5TDi engine.

[lee celtic]

450 ish

Not exact as I drive on lanes and motor ways and every thing in between so I haven't been able to be 100% acurate .. :D

Hope it helps

[strapping young lad]

depends on your right foot

ive got 500 out of mine when i first had it but if i floor it to work and do a lot of higher speeds then its going to be less but is def over 430 mils per tank even then

Ya, I'd go with the two above on a standard vehicle.

It will reduce slightly with mods like larger tyres, roofrack, larger intercooler etc.
With all this, and more, fitted I'm still getting about 28-30mpg and 350 miles from 3/4 of a tank I always fill-up when it gets to quater of a tank so I've still got a good 100 miles worth of fuel left.

With the amount of mileage I do normally a tank-full will last me three weeks to a month and with diesel now 96.5p a litre on the island it's just as well!!

Island life for you!!  :D  
Normally we only do about 160 to 200 miles in a week and that's in either the Disco or the Rangie, depending on which one's out the front.

I quite often wish for a quieter pace to life.

There must be more than work, work, work.

My average is about 530 miles per tankful (from an absolute brimming)

By the way, as I was on the A64, just to the east of York, heading towards the east coast (of Yorkshire) on Friday afternoon I came across a farmer selling 'Bio-Diesel' from his yard.
I think it was sign-posted at 69p/litre

My 1993 200tdi on road tyres, between 450-500 miles from full
tank.

Last year on hols, on road tyres it managed over 400, me being chicken and not running it beyond the orange light. Bit less on the muds now though

[robbie]

I get around 450 form a tankful but there is probably enough to get another 25 if I really ran it down.

That is in an auto too, mixed motorway and road driving on AT's..

I believe you could expect less if you run on MT's but dont know for sure

Motorway speeds, towing a caravan, doodling round town in the traffic always about 28 to the gallon or 450-500 per tankful.......Dave

[Jake]

I too get around 450-500 miles to a tank
All A/B roads
