Default Record: fuel consumption

I've been driving like a Nanna recently and scored 425km out of my last tank of Optimax, and filled with 42 litres. Under 10L/100km! This was all in the city and suburbia, NO freeways at all.

Can anyone beat this?

That figure included two runs with my mates G-tech. First launch bogged down: 7.0. Second run, clutch drop at 5500 and ran a 6.2sec 0-100 kph.

How do you guys get 400Kms + to a tank??

I usually get about 330kms - 350kms and i dont have a really heavy foot.

I have the occasional squirt into Vtec and then normal driving & this is around the burbs

I'm with you Rev,

Anyone who gets over 380km before the light goes on should hand their keys back and drive a fiesta for a week.
