Average K's per tank?

[gtiono]

Am just curious with the driving habits of Mk4 GTI owners.

How many K's per tank do you think you average? (assuming you take note at some point in time)

I do about 500 on mine using 98RON.

Generally get around 500km before the fuel warning light comes on.
I then fill up straight away; I don't believe it is a good practice to try and "empty" the tank completley.
I am averaging 9.2L/100km on the Trip Computer (2).

I usually get about 400k's on it, but my car is chipped and i do occasionally enjoy hammering it...but what should be norm? or considered to be normal.

But say if your using alot more fuel than you should and you drive it in a decent way what could be the problem???

my 1.6 Polo does alright on a long trip, until you take someone with you, and then it goes stupid.... i think i got about 11 last long trip

600+ for a led foot seems pretty impressive. Did you also mod your fuel tank?

Does anyone else notice you seem to get a hell of alot more out of the first half tank than the second half? (taking it to the warning light).

i get about 450km to a tank using BP Ultimate. Trip computer shows about 12.5l per 100km. it used to be about 13L till i installed the CAI. I think this is pretty good for an R32

How many K's should I expect when I hit the fuel light...

I've had it come up a few times, and I've wandered how far can I go (not that I want to).

Edit - 325km from 3/4 tank last hit out. Driving to work / city.
