Our citroen saxo has fuel capacity of just under ten UK gallons, with mixed town and motorway driving usually giving around 47 MPG, with better than 55 on motorway running.
But 130 miles on half a tank of petrol ain’t good even in crawling traffic.
The point of my last post was to show how having to crawl along on congested roads can half (or worse) fuel consumption.
I know this has been said many times but it is important, and i don’t mind if anyone thinks here we go again repeating an old thread.
So if anyone is just planning a trip or if evacuation is your SHTF plan, work on sufficient fuel for double your expective milage at least.
