mm.. and how big is the tank? cost me 52 bucks from a $1.22/ltr i think premium aswell.. BP ultimate. anyone got any suggestions to get better ks?

cheers
was that $1.22 for standard unleaded price or for the BP Ultimate price? assuming Ultimate price (though it sounds like standard 91ron price...) means you got 11.84L per 100km. which isn't outragous if you shift at highish rpm (4k or higher), use heavy throttle on the way up to 4k, and cruise around in 5th gear (on highways?).

if 1.22 was for 91ron, then 98 would have been 1.32. which means 10.9L per 100km. ($52 @ 1.32 = 39.4L. 39.4/3.6 = 10.9L per 100km)

i would try to change your driving style for a week or two (lightish throttle, shifts at 3k or so, cruise in 6th gear for any speed higher than 60km) and see how your fuel consumption goes.
