i drive to work daily in the mini... about 30 - 35km round trip with 1 foot to the floor steep hill on the way. And might do 1 or 2 other trips or deviations to my norm each week I dont specifically keep track of it but i fill up every 5 or 6 working days so travel about 200 - 250km between fill ups and put maybe 16-20 liters in each time So my numbers would match yours pretty well. Mine is a bog standard 998 by the way. |

There is an app you can put on your Android or other type to track economy. I take a photo of my k's and the receipt and from time to time stick it in a spreadsheet. I haven't done it recently so it would be interesting to see how things have changed since the carby was done and also since we took the stupid rich needle out... |

I drove mine to work for a week (70km return) and got 7.2L/100km average. I only have the single small tank, so I filled up a couple of times that week! It's a standard deluxe 998, at least 50% of the trip is in a 100kph zone too, the rest is 50/60/70 |

I've been getting shy of 9l/100km out of my 998 over the last few weeks. But it needs a good tune and a wheel alignment - hopefully that will improve things. |

My 1310A+ which I've just converted back from EFI to HIF44, is getting 6.3l/100k (44.8MPG) this was over 332k's 200 using it locally and some highway and the rest with my son driving on his L plates. Very happy, as my Renault Clio only gets 6.6l/100k over the same routes. The engine has Metro standard cam 1.5 rockers, LCB, MG Metro Turbo head and still running the MegaSquirt ECU, but only ignition. Jim |

I'm a nerd who likes number crunching (its my job), so I track all our cars whenever I fill them. Our 87 Rover mini 998cc averages 8.3lt/100 (spirited peak hour melbourne driving lately) Our 88 Rover mini 1275 spi averages 9l/100 (always ran rich so I've just accepted that and try to remain happy that it actually runs) Our 63 Morris 850 (stock standard 850) averages 7.5l/100 which is only weekend cruising. All are heavier on the juice that my suzuki swift which averages 6.9l/100. |
