Can you tell me how many km in average you do with one tank full of gas.

Need to know if it's a MC or MCS.

Let me know.

Thanks.

I guess I'm getting around 450km from a tank in a 05 S. Still breaking it in as I'm around 1400km currently on the clock.

Give or take a few Km, depending on how leaden footen I am being

Can't get these figures on the track though

Max - same fuel usage even with the upgrade from standard MCS

So I guess that 450 km with one tank is the best I can come up with.

Hey other mini drivers what is your average gas mileage that you do with your car?

What is the best we can do if we don't put the pedal to the floor all the time...

I get about 550km a tank on my MC.
That's with Shell Optimax Gold 91 octane.
Could get more if I run the tank down, but usually refuel at about 1/8 tank. (the low fuel light seems to come on early at just below 1/4 tank)
Worst mileage to date is 35 mpg, all city in the recent cold snap.
Best mileage was 41mpg on a trip to Saskatoon, but that was shortly after the break-in period, I bet it will do better this summer.

Thanks for the reply. I see that the mileage you get is with a MC. Can somebody tell me what average mileage he does with his MCS.

[MiniByblos]

Well I must be doing something wrong. I used to get about 330KM per tank with 91 octane. Since I did the MTH mod, I only get about 275. Any other MCS owners experiencing similar numbers?

[DarkMiniCooperS]

With my MCS, I get around 350-400km on a full tank.

I got the same numbers stock and modded...

I just went on a long road trip from Montreal to Miami and I almost got 500km doing only highway, which is good in my own opinion...

[SoonToBeMini]

I got a little over 500kms a few times this summer, doing mostly highway.

These days I get around 400kms a tank, maybe a little less. Seems like winter time is always tougher on gas mileage. I`m riding my 17" on dunlops graspics 215 wide too so that doesn`t help. I`d be curious to know if going to 15" or 16" improves these numbers or not, the stock 17" wheels are quite heavy.

Anyway when I bought the car I expected around 9 l / 100, lol. Guess that won`t happen.

2004 MCS: 475-550km per tank in a normal commute week from full to the light being on for a few km. Work drive is 50km each way half city/half freeway with US/Canada border in between. Freeway part is 120-130kph driving when the construction barrels are away.

During a non work week of pottering around town it will drop to 400-450km per tank.

Averaging 31-34 imperial MPG.

[MiniByblos]

Wow! I"m really way off from these numbers.
Darkminicoopers: did you see a difference after your MTH mod?

doesnt help much, i hv 15s in the winter and mileage is about the same as the ones in the summer..

i get about 350-450 a tank.... depends on load.. before any mod.. i had done 700km once on a single tank doing 90% highway on one beautiful fall day

I average around 400km on a tank of gas. It doesn't matter if I take it easy on the car or push it - always around 400km. I got 500km out a tank - straight highway driving to West Virginia last year.

Oh, and it's an MCS JCW.

Im with SoonToBeMini, got an '04 MCS, get about 400kms/tank city driving, and whenever i decide to take a trip down south of the border, i can get upwards of 500kms.

'04 MINI COOPER

Around 420kms with 94 Oct. Gas.

I decided to take a trip to Toronto when i only had 1,800 kms of my car,,, i did 675 KMS with one Full tank !! yep,, am not even joking. But remember,, i maintained a low rev. during the whole trip,, didn't exceed 90kms/hr.

I have 11,000 kms already and i only had my car for 6 months,, damn i cruise A LOT !

Hi:

I have a 05 MCS, after run-in, now whenever I fill up the Esso 91 Supreme, my OBC always show 500KM per tannk and 11.6L/100KM. Now I used to fill my gas tank after 400KM driving and my OBC always show around 80 to 100KM left from the tank. So I think if I drive though the whole tank of gas, it can do around 460KM per tank.

I used to drive in city, but when I work, it will be city plus highway...

[nfinity]

I reset the odometer after every fillup. Did almost a whole tank today and I did about 525km. Probably could have done about 550-600 at the pace I was going at. About 99% highway driving.
