looks like about 75 miles out of a 1/4 tank for me. Done 170 miles since filling up after the free petrol that the dealer gave me (3/8)

Reckon it will be about the 22mpg mark which seems to be what the report is on www.rx8ownersclub.co.uk/forum

I got 23mpg 1st tank. BUT we dont use the same gallons. Yours are smaller than our (imperial) gallon - so you cant realy compare.

Whereabouts? Had a quick look and cant find it.

We have got a thread about mpg which I just bumped. I would put in a link if I was clever but I'm not so I couldn't. Might even be worth a sticky?
