Just wanted to see what everyone gets in fuel consumption per tank,
Ive been checking on each fill up i do and taking note,

Just seeing if mines pretty standard or not

I get about 320-340km out of a full tank,
With steel rims and 225.75.16 all terrain tyres,

no other weight added other than the spare tyre on the back and roof awning.

I'm getting around the 180 to 200 miles per tank from mine. But it's an auto, and most of those miles are split between town centre driving, field work and towing. Last year on my Northumberland holiday I was getting nearer 300 miles to the tank and that was with the roof box on all week.

They vary a lot between usage, engine types and generations but that sounds pretty normal for a Gen 3. I get 150 miles (240km) when I don't go far from the farm, up to 220 miles (350km) if I'm doing mostly road work. That's with a 1.6, 215/75 tyres, slightly lower gearing and fairly spirited driving. People who drive really slow will get more.

A tank holds 40 litres and the fuel light comes on when there are about 6 litres left.

My 2014 manual generally did 37-39 mpg.   I try to avoid congestion, short trips, and stop-start driving.

The current 2012 auto did 31mpg on its first fill.  It's being used by a learner so that was mainly town driving and parking.  On a longer run, I'd expect high 30s.  It's going to get one of those next week, all the way to Swansea and back.

My 2019 JB74 SZ4 is completely standard and usually carries 2 people and an 8KG dog. We drive in the town, country lanes and a little bit of motorway.
A tank of fuel will take me 316 miles, just over 500 km.
I must be doing something right!
