Mpg! What Are You Getting?

[CadeyIS200]

Whats everyone getting out of their IS200? i seem to be putting in £50 a week and going at least 60 miles a day and then thats the tank gone.

any tips as to how you guys are saving the petrol if you are?

[stuie]

i got 300 round town miles out of 58 liters last month

[kenfoxy]

60 miles = 1.7 gallons @ 35 mpg = £7.23 times 7 days = £51. Sounds OK to me.

[CadeyIS200]

As long as it sounds ok then thats all good, i didnt want anything to be wrong with my car.

[Saraj]

sounds about right, the pleasure of driving a Lexus lol

[colbecoz]

448 miles on 56 Litres last weekend.

Col :winky:

[P.Lindblom]

Last winter my best average was 39,5 mpg, doing 862,2 km (535,7 miles) on 61,73 litres (13,4 gallons) of petrol :)

[Asi]

well with the supercharger im getting 260 miles out of 60 litres. which is ok i suppose

[dazz32]

I get about 350 miles full tank ( all town driving )

[VVProtocolVV]

I fill up on a friday after finishing work (£30@91p a litre (with low petrol light on and it ends up just under half way mark) and it lasts me until the following week. I don't drive in the weekend, but if i do it's only around 7 miles. For every 5 weeks i can skip filling for one week because i never use all the petrol thats accumulated over the 5 weeks and i repeat the process. I do 34 miles a day, 60% country roads and 40 A roads.

It used to last me longer but as everyone knows petrol has gone up, was bliss @81p litre. I could get away without filling the car over the 4 weeks of accumulated petrol to last me an extra week!

Tip? light footed, i don't go over 3000rpm at any point, only fill car half way with petrol, coast when you can (without clutch pressed!), correct tyre pressure ( i have mine at 35psi as it's been WIM'ed), Don't have windows open when over 40mph.

[rig-pig]

[doog442]

thats town driving..i cycle to work most days..which is outa town

[Saraj]

highest i ever got in my is200 was 320, and the petrol was soo low, i was not getting any power

[ormi]

currently done 357 and the lights not on yet(2 lines above empty)thats using vpower

[omega]

The consumption to power ratio is not good at all.

[Painkiller]

I'm getting 240 - 250 from a tank of v-power.

[DJ Wozza]

I'm getting about 300 miles out of a tank at the moment, mostly city driving,

with a trip to Reading from Kent once a week.

I have found the car to have more power when using BP Ultimate against any other fuel

(95RON, 97RON & 99RON Tesco included), although I haven't tried V-Power for ages.

[kenfoxy]

I've found that Sainsbury's 97 has the same "feel". Some say it's the same thing. Nectar points as well. Co-incidence?

[Asi]

The consumption to power ratio is not good at all.

i agree you could drive a m3 or something and get the same mpg

[bluey70]

Typically get 300-310 mile from a full tank all town driving in west london.

Can get upto 420 miles when pure motorway.

[mattstheone]

I used to get around 380 out of a tank of Fuel in my IS200 when i had it

usually spent around 55-60. to fill it depending on time of year with fuel costs

correct me if i am wrong does it have a 70L Tank

so at 70L=380 miles for a 2.0L car that was not good for me

Not sure that the figures about how much people can do on "a tank" are a good guide really, since it depends on how you define "a tank". It is when you hit the low fuel light or when you actually run out of petrol (not recommended !) ?

When the low fuel light comes on there is still quite a bit in the tank, I'm sure it's close to 10 litres.

I typically get around 31 mpg. I've got around 430 miles between refills before, but of course that's still with a few litres remaining.

[Asi]

before i ha the charher fitted i use to get 320 that was mixed. sometime thrasing it and sometimes taking it easy once i got 390 that was constant taking it easy.

[tinygsy]

My first "tankful" was 50 litres and that had allowed me to drive 240 miles. I was quite impressed with that as my Impreza used to do 120miles to 45 litres
