How Many Miles To A Tank Of Juice

[pipestrangler (Ian)]

Hi just wondering how many miles i will get to a tank of petrol on my IS 200 auto

[WylieCoyote]

Piece of string really. Depends on driving style, type of mileage, tyre pressures and so on. On a full tank totally urban driving (I have what you'd call a 'relaxed' driving style!) I get 280-300. On a combined cycle I get 320-370 and on a totally extra urban tank I get 420-450.

I don't mod cars so it's standard.

Lol i wish i could get 300's from a tank, Motorway driving and staying to the speed limit is the only way ive reached it lol

i got 452 out of a tank mainly motorway driving :D

[SHAHZ]

used to get 300 before the light came on, nowdays its around 275, but doing shorter journeys around town which is probably why

[pipestrangler (Ian)]

thanks guys, i was just wondering, still on first tank of juice, but i have stuck foot down a few times....oh the power.....so will be pleased if i get 300

[stuie]

last tank was 270 miles round town for 57 litres

Always fill my car up when light comes on..i get about 320-340 miles ( town driving ) depending aswell if the old lead foot comes into play..

Motorway (constant 100mph) will just get me 300 miles on a tank. But my first tank in the Lex was under 200! That'll be the charger and my heavy right foot thou.

I'd have thought you could expect 300-400 really.

Just went through my first full tank - 380 miles before light came on from completely full, with a fairly balanced mix of motorway (approx 200 miles) and urban (approx 180) driving.

I have been driving without snow mode, but am driving like i have egg shells under my foot, and have wanted to use this as a "control" to see the best economy i could achieve on a mix of urban/motorway.

This was on standard 95 RON from BP

I get around 300

I went to Dorset for easter, managed to average 36-37 mpg doing 70mph all the way, got 490 miles out of my tank, I filled it up from empty when the light was on. I do feather the throttle, Also I left at half four in the morning so there was no overtaking, I think thats pretty good really, although I get half that when I fill it up and just use the car for going to work and back (12 miles in total there and back).

Also its a manual if you were wondering.

Interesting reading, I've just refilled after using my first tank of fuel and only got 280 miles out of 54 litres, it was mostly town driving though (& some heavy footed getting used to the car) so I'm guessing now I'm back at work there's still hope it could perform a bit better.

[rig-pig]

norm is about 350 with town,M/way and the odd blast thats wi the manual box

[TomCooper]

im glad im not the only 1 getting low mpg, im getting around 250 - 300 around 21mpg i think, mostly aroudn town driving or doen a roads...

what makes this car so uneconomical? its not exactly fast i had a lil race with a pug 205 with 80bhp and lost!!! i know the old is200 is heavy how much does it weigh usually?

also i want to fit a charger (if i can find 1) eventually, what will this do to my mpg?

I get 300 miles for urban driving with a qtr tank left. Never let it go past that as all the crap is at the bottom of the tank. My car is a manual by the way. On a motorway run I get about 450.

[corsavandal]

Usually 300-320. im going to Reading this weekend then over to Wembley and finally back to Leeds. Will be doing 70 all the way too if it means i get 450 from a tank!

Im similar 2 Daz put £60 in & im nearly empty will let u know

[TomCooper]

£70 in on wednesday 110.9p a litre down here..... half a tank around 140 miles

[tHomBleached]

new record for me:

430 before the light came on :)

I swear the ecu is learning better and better :)

...oh and that was with me raggin the engine a few times (although mostly motorway)

[Jay6]

The last full tank I made note of was back in Feb, I got 330 miles ( 58.89 litres @ £1.03 this was back in Feb petrol was much cheaper!)

330 miles mixture of town and motorway. Was driving like an absolute pensioner. Changing gear every 2,000- 2,500 RPM.

Worked out 25.4MPG, which I think is great but driving that slow was not fun!

[Lexus2D]

Iv just tanked up £62

Done 345 last time with £60

Hi - I get anything from 200 to 300 from a full tank, it all depends on where and how I drive

im amazed at some of the figures being quoted here, usually bout 250 before light comes on if im lucky, yeah bit more on a run though i tend to nail it harder on a long motorway run, soooo boring doing 70mph ;)
