martinmac Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 Hi and welcome to the forum. I think a tank is now just over £80 and I normally get up to 400 miles if I am sensible. Motorway driving. What sort of age of car are you after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mutl3y Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 The 350z has a 80 litre tank, so a full tank of Shell V-Power costs upwards of £85. I get about 30ish on the motorway and much much less on country lanes! ::::Edited because I put in the word "engine" instead of "tank"....wishful thinking on the engine capacity methinks!

Motorway driving. What sort of age of car are you after. wow that was quick thanks guys, and that is a bit of a monster tank!! but 400 miles not too bad, think i am after a 2004 in blue with leather seats, bose and the brembos i got around ten to spend but i am more in the stage of working out teh models etc so far, plan would be to lower it and either stick with the standard wheels or a set of 19's, whats the common on re maps on here is it really worth it??

Boycey Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Welcome and good luck getting the zed you want. Don't worry about the cost of fuel, just eat less, never by any clothes or take the other half out, hell, even sleep in the car if you need to, the smile the zed will give you will be more than you'll ever need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
