    hi everyone looking to see how much I should be getting out of a full tank in a corolla (93 1.3 16value)
    I seem to be only getting about 300 - 320 miles out of a full tank about (40 litres) that is long spins of 100 miles and some around town driving.
    i've kept a record over the last few weeks and its the same.
    any ideas?
    tyres are correct pressure.

    320 miles for 40 litres is 36.37MPG....
    not sure what the mpg on a 1993 corolla is but I wouldn't say its too far wrong, for its age...

    It'll take 44 litres if you fill it to the brim and I get on average 350 miles out of a tank, 97 xli 1332cc

    Not great is it.

    Engine size to weight ratio is not the best for the car

    I must start a thread soon about the cheapest car to run.
