From where I live to Le Mans is approx 620 km (over Calais) with virtually no motorway
I managed to do that with 2 tanks (totalling 87 liter) That is just over 14 liter/100 km or 20.13 mpg (if I got the conversion right) On the other extreme, I'm afraid the figures are less 'green' A sunny sunday afternoon with lots of fun  emptied a 41 liter fueltank in just under 200 km.
That translates to just over 20 liter/100 km or just under 14 mpg. Something tells me that above figures are only 'mediocer' and other will do far better or far worse

reckon I get 26 mpg on motorway runs, & maybe 12 mpg on the commute, possibly less (all 1st or 2nd gear. 3rd is a rare treat!).
