My mini seems to be going through more fuel then what it should. At least 10L per 100k's.... prob a tad more. Does this sound about right or should it be better then this. The 20L tank probably don't help either when it's a 30km drive to work haha  .

I get better than that with my warm 1275. It probably just needs new plugs/leads and a good tune. |

I get less than 22 mpg (gallon = 4.5 L, maybe that is right) So you've got a good one

I reckon unleaded fuel now has so much solvents etc in it that it evaporates even if you don't drive it!  or while you're driving...
