    Fill up, reset your consumption, then hit it hard out of the servo, getting it up over 50L/100km isn't hard

    ...mind you it settles back down as your round the next corner and drop back to a nice even 60...

    Why are your ignition lights on? Rolling down a hill in neutral with the engine off?

    Well i've done 150km around Hobart (good amount on the motorway) and gotten 8.8L/100km.

    I usually get really high readings when i first drive down the road like 40s-50s. The other day i changed my spark plugs and on the first drive after i got a reading of 96L/100km!!!!! NO JOKE!!!

    pffft that only happens when you pull the key out and throw it at your then girlfriend...
    On the upside she game me the key back before we hit the median strip and signs...

    And that is why you shouldn't argue while driving
