probs between 350 - 400. £52 it bloody well cost me the other day!
first half of my tank lasts quite a while then it just p*sses out. it'll sit on the line for aaages, then i'll get back in next time and it's dropped a notch!

think our record is about 420-430.... but that was driving with a very light foot!.... but it can be done!... if you keep the revs under 3k, and keep a top speed of about 60mph!

I've been trying to keep to 2k revs.

I've been experimenting this week and have done 200 miles on half a tank.
Think the clio tank must be an odd shape, because the top dissappears loads faster than the bottom of the guage...

I'm aiming for 400 miles. I had such good intentions until our journey home tonight... :eek:

I know it's not supposed to be driven like a DCi, before people start harping on. :rasp:
 
  172 Cup (Iceberg)
Up and down the motorway mon-fri i get about 420, sometimes a little bit more. That's me in my 172 Cup.


I think of the tank as shaped like an onion, it's got to be cos my top bit goes down waay too quick but then it evens out. as it goes to halfway it seems to get stuck on half for ages!

About 420ish motorway miles, proven when i picked my Trophy up and drove home.
I just did 250miles on £30 so i would say about 350 to 420 depending on how u drive.
 
Since ive had mine, (a month) from a full tank with one bar left on the gauge ive made over 300 miles easy, and thats with a lot of heavy foot driving from my 172 Cup!!! Im travelling to scarborough from Guildford tomorrow, ill let you guys know how many miles i get then trying to be economical :)

I drive my Williams like a saint and this last time i got 353 miles which worked out an average of 36.6 mpg. [I also have a decat]

How many litres is a fill for a RenaultSport. I think on the above fill was around 43.

My 1.4 clio has a 50 litre tank and I think the RS's are the same

I've been going from Wakefield to Broad Street in Birmingham & back again over the past 2 months. I've been 3 times so far, 114 miles each way so 228 in total equals 1 tank of fuel every time.

Maybe 1 hour 25 minutes to complete the journey might expalin it.

Just filled up from 41 miles left on trip... £51.... i should be used to it by now, but it still hurts!... Glad i don't have a chelsea tractor!
Will report back figures in a couple of weeks!

my best is 423 - i ran out of fuel going to the station with the trip computer saying 35 miles left !

i saw 413 the other week doing an experiment to see how far i could get... normally i average around 330 ish.

i did brum and back a couple of weeks back and still had 1/2 tankful left - didn't go above 65 though to acheive it.... wouldn't recommend it for your sanity though.
 
Went up birchdown for my service last monday, 160mile round trip. I got 45.5mpg was very imprssed!!

I usually get around 300mile a tank.

I've just worked something out

I reckon I get about 330ish miles on a tank, maybe more which is about 35mpg. The 08 plate corsa hire car I had last week did about 45mpg. Now get this, 330 miles in the corsa would have cost me a tenner less than 330 in the 172. I reckon the amount of enjoyment I get out of the 172 is worth well more than the 3p a mile it costs me over a more economical (totally dull) car!:cool:
