On a run like yours, I get 10 lts/100 km if I push it. If I stick to the speed limits on cruse control, it can drop to 8.5 lt/100kms.
What equates to 28 to 33 miles per Imperial gallon.

whew! i just looked up the conversion. 28 to 33 mpIg is equal to 23.32 to 27.49 mpUSg. i can buy into this. but i have read US SVXers reporting 30 mpUSg, which would be well over 500 miles per tank. it seems that nik is at the other extreme if he is only getting 280 miles per tank. i guess i should be content with my mileage. and in colorado, our premium fuel octane is only rated at 91. i believe most states in the US it is rated at 93.
