How many miles should a full tank of unleaded petrol last me? (roughly).

The engine is a 1.3.

The reason I ask is because I seem to be filling up an aweful lot more often these days but not doing any more miles than i've ever done. I think my engine is fooked or something and using more fuel than it should?

All very well saying the engine is a 1.3, but it all depends on fuel efficiency, fuel mixture and several other things. what car is it? much easier to tell from the car

Tyre pressure is a biggy.

Getting it serviced helps.

Not driving around like your hair's on fire also helps.

my 1.2 clio is giving 42mpg, on average. And im not the most conservative driver in the world.

42mpg, that gives 462miles per tank of petrol, 11 gallon tank.
