spursmaddave Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Import Zeds have smaller tanks don't they? Also I don't think I ever squeezed much over 70l in at a fill up Sent from the golf club... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spursmaddave Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Anybody doing more than 250miles on a full tank in a 350/370z drives like the queen, TheBountyBarKid, ionabee or like Ms Daisy I think 99% of Zed drivers would average more than 15mpg unless they were in traffic or on a track no matter how they drive Sent from the golf club...

KyleR Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Since ownership I've filled her up 3 times costing about £70 a time on Momentum £70 is about 50 litres @ £1.35 per litre. The Zed has an 80 litre tank? 200 miles from 50 litres is about 18mpg, so about right if doing short journeys and blasts. Yeah, This. A full 80 litres will cost you about 100 quid so what your actually using is about right for regular short journies. Incidentally, regular half mile journies will do the car no good at all. Your oils will never be getting up to temperature. Surely this is irrelevant? Long journey or short journey, everything isn't up to temperature for the first 10 minutes. Yes, mile for mile the engine will be in less tip top condition than another car with the same mileage that's driven 50 miles each way to work, but day to day it's no different, both have to warm up.

Ekona Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 But with the 50 mile journey, they car will actually warm up and burn off the nasties. The cold car will just leave them sitting in there, eating horses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mouthwash Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I don't ever fill my tank to the top, the extra weight saving allows me to take on VXRs in the traffic light GP. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meeerrrk Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 We get between 350-400 with mixed general driving. Usually average about 25mpg on the trip computer, which I'm sure isn't actually ver accurate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

370Ad Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I got 450 out of the 50 once. The new one is averaging 26mpg on the on board computer but haven't done a full fill up yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flex Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I get around 600 but have to mix in a bit of diesel to get those numbers, money saving will go towards engine rebuild and SC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I can get 750 miles to my 68ltr tank if I am careful, usually average around 500 though on the odd occasion I fill it up, not very often..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
