In a good state of tune in standard form you should see 25-28mpg maybe 30 at a push, however as soon as you start adding weight with heavy duty bumpers, larger more aggressive tyres, then all these things will start to reduce the fuel economy.

I get about 20mpg but then I have a 1.6 8v, two transfer boxes and 33x12.5" tyres to turn :lol:

I did that journey on just under a tank Dan, then again a recovery truck was involved :hahaha:

My map reading is perfect, just not when I'm trying to drive at the same time :thefinger:

It's not that Karis can't read a map it's just that she always refuses too or gets fed up of it within 20 mins :lol: :thumbdown:

I'm going to invest in a GPS system I think :lol:
