car drinking petrol

[GoldenMerc]

The only diesel 206 worth getting is the 2.0L HDi which will happily be more economical for long journeys (dual carriageways etc) but insurance wise it'll cost a bomb.

its the word "turbo" that seems to not screw me over, i don't even get the results back. only about 2-3 people touch me haha

I do an 80 mile round trip everyday to work. I spend about £50-55 a week on Petrol. My only benefit is i drive a long distance so my fuel stretches a little further. If you do loads of short journeys some cars will just eat fuel like its going out of Fashion. I want to change my car to a diesel but im not sure what i want.

Im on something silly like 18 miles to the gallon, considering getting LPG conversion

Car talk confuses me, i've been trying to work out my MPG, but again.. i'm not knowledgable about cars. I know that i get approx 420 miles every tank, depending on traffic etc i'm stuck in. Which seems reasonable? But it could be better i think.

Think 25-30 is reasonable. Depends what litre it is really, then again some new BMW's (2 litres) get 50+ mpg

I drive a Corsa SE i think it is. Petrol, 1.2 something or another. It was meant to have fantastic MPG and yet i don't really see it lol.. and i know when they publish those figures it's done under certain control.. but still! My brother drives a new shaped clio and it's diesel and he does the same miles and it barely even tickles the fuel guage!

I could prob drive say 35 miles on £10 to be fair and thats a hyundai coupe

That's not a good fuel economy out of something that's not a performance car.

My Motorbikes petrol seem to go down when its a hot day for some reason

Because a few days ago I filled it up and went on a 30mile ride (my bike can do just over 60miles on a full tank) and when i got home, it was just over 1/2 a tank left, then when i went to go out on it again the next day my tank was nearly empty

Should have gotten a diesel, my 1.9tdi golf mk4 does 52 miles per 7.50
