My 94 GC8 uses 10L/100km all day, every day, even with kids in the back, snowboards on the roof and a boot full of gear. Gold!

Great tune....they must have spent a fair bit of time on the cruise stuff to get that sort of economy....my old MY99 used to get on average 320-350kms per tank running the Autronics plus some tast bits.....best would be 380kms.

Same as far as golf goes, I play mainly at Colliers, Wembley and others SOR.

Doing nice long freeway runs in 6th gear I can get as much as 270kms to a tank, pushing it hard (track type stuff) gets around 220kms and stop-start city driving gets 180km absolute tops.

Has a few mods though

Can be annoying at times - what I need is a servo with some hot chicks working there so at least it'd be the perfect excuse to keep going back and checking them out

I always seem to crack the 400km every tank no matter what the type of driving.

On a good week or 2 I can crack the 500km on a single 60L tank with the fuel light coming on around the 490km mark.

Best ever I have got from a tank is 550km and that was pusing it but it was a long drive in 6th gear for 80% of the drive.
