Just completed 506.2 miles in the Saab using 12.44 UK gallons
giving me 40.69mpg
(UK)
thats 128% of the published extraurban mpg of 31.7..
At this rate it looks like every 4th tank will have saved a full tank of petrol.. so I've cut my petrol bill and consumption by at least 25%.
Currently, a full tank costs circ £65 ($102 US) so not an inconsiderable saving.
this record tank was achieved even though I used the car to Move flat- basically using it like a van..
I've now settled into my car sharing commute and I think the car likes the journey-so I'm hoping for further improvement..
Next goal is 135% of Extra urban!
thats 42.79 mpg UK.
