£10, about 1.5 gallons, is probably not far off for 100% urban use in this weather, esp if auto.

My missus always used to nag me about driving too fast.  Since the birth of our daughter, she keeps having to remind me that I can do more than 40 in a 60 limit!  ::)

What kind of GSi is it mate?

Oh, and Albs... Button it!  >:(

That's good going!
I think my 2.5 MFL was more efficient than the current Elite, but that could also be manual vs auto issue too.

75 miles from £10 in London on the 3.2 Manual, mind you that is on that Gas stuff!, if on Petrol about 42 miles, still not as good as the 3.0 Manual though.
