Look, I have been unable to put more than 40 L in a tank ever, probably due to a fault (?) in Ford's design of the fuel fill tube and venting system ( I read this thread
http://www.focusfanatics.com/forum/showthr...ght=fuel+filler
a while back to see if I could find a solution). I don't mean to harsh anyones buzz but so many things play a part in fuel economy that litres per tank is a real ballpark kinda figure. Lets have anyone who posts about fuel economy (good or bad!) show us figures: litres and klicks. Since we are on the subject, does the SPI get better mileage than the Zetec? I seem to get 34 mpg (Imp.) whether or not I drive in the city or on the highway. Wierd.

I think my best so far was 7.4L/100kms But that was at 130km/h. I could probably easily hit 7.0L/100kms if I stopped putting the hammer down. :D
