Z-Drive Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Hi guys, just signed up. I'm thinking of purchasing a 350Z and was wondering how many miles people are getting on a full tank and how much a full tank costs in todays climate? I know this depends on how you drive but on average would be good to know. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narcotix Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I usually fill up around £45 a week in the Zed and get around 230 miles from it ... I average around 22 - 25 mpg according to the onboard computer ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexZ Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Welcome mate, Ive just filled up tonight with V-Power at £1.25.9 per liter. It cost me £76 to fill and will last about 300miles around town at 19-22mpg. Mate, you dont worry about the fuel to much when she drives like she does....GET ONE BOUGHT Alexz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 i to average 22-25 mpg costs £86 last fill up from empty get roughly 350 miles to the tank. mines a UK car so has the bigger fuel tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATTAK Z Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 24.7 mpg (as it says on the tin) at 34 mph average............. and that's with 95 ron ...... always the same week in week out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctor austin Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I fill up from about 1/4 of a tank for £75 and get anywhere between 18 and 31 mpg. Thrash around locally its 18 and on a run being careful 31... BUT dont worry about that its sooo much fun. More to the point do it whilst you can. The ways things are going with fuel prices and road fund licence we are all gradually being taxed off the road. My advice get a zed and just enjoy it.

doctor austin Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Regarding tank size..mines a JDM and I can get £90 in it no problem..nothing to boast about though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roo Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I've stopped looking at fuel consumption.... I don't care 5 seconds after I've left the petrol station anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZedJohn Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Marginally worse on the track... BUY ONE - you won't regret it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruddles Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Averaging roughy 35mpg or thereabouts daily driving. Filled a very nearly empty tank the last Friday priced up at £65.35, BUT be warned! ...a full tank screams out "drive me" and so about 40 miles later you've made that 5 mile trip from the petrol station to home.

mattbowey Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 i just bought one, picked up last fri. have filled it twice since costing around 80 quid each time. still having too much fun to put my sensible head on and see how long a tank will last. not regretting it in the slightest though.

Cookbot Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 On a long journey on motorways at about 80i sh, I get about 32-34mpg....Until I thrash it for a bit. I use Tesco 99 and only go round with 1/4 tank. You have to fill more, but it is a lot more responsive and gets better mpg. Try it, you might be surprised.

Danny 350Z Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Jesus, Stew. How did you get that reading? The best I ever got was coasting down a long Welsh valley road, but that was still 56mpg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ersen.o Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I full tank up £80-£90 a week on my JDM and get 250miles in pure london driving if the prices go up anymore im selling up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s1xtyn1n3 Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 I fill my UK 54 plate up from 1/4 with BP Ultimate about once every 2 - 3 weeks and it only costs £50?! That can't be right surely? I tend to only do 4 mile journeys to and from work and get 20mpg. Not complaining about that, just the amount of fuel the tank seems to take appears to be less than others...

I do roughly 10 miles a day to and from work and fortunately the road is either completely clear so I cruise at 50-ish or choc-full of lorries so I cruise ..at 50-ish . Whichever way, I get up early for work so I can spend more time in the Zed! Sad I know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixy Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Can get about 65 quids worth in my tank from the warning light being on and I get about 24mpg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
