Going by the fuel guage, 125km per quarter.

And 3rd long trip this month, passed 250km and only 1/4 of a tank down. Thats repeatable to me :D


Do you turn your car off when going down hills or something? I could have sworn it was possible to power my car (and lube the engine, haha) by just following you :P

I haven't given my car an easy day yet and manage just shy of 10km/L around town. Even if I drive it like a nana I don't get much better.

I used to get 8.5-9L/100km (properly measured) on my AE101 20v around the town. 6L/100km was the best I got out that 20v...

na, no key offs. Dont need to as computer turns them off when right off the gas. Engine brake more and use less brake pads = double win

As for oil, its about 400km/L :oops:

Ah, so you get that mileage by using oil instead of fuel and then not calculating the oil in the usage!! cheat!!! :lol:
