Thread: Filled my 900 today ...

  1. #1

    Filled my 900 today ...

    238.6 miles since the last fill. Took 53.95 litres at 40.9p / litre ...

    and cost me 22 quid

    Actual consumption of 20.11mpg, 'notional' (adjusted for the price differential) consumption of 40.75mpg

    I love LPG

    May I share your "smug mode"?

    Gonna fill mine up tomorrow before going home and it's finally after 4K miles starting to get decent mpg from this new engine (though I have nursed it a bit this week)

    So far done 425 mixed town, A road, M1 & M25 miles since Tuesday night, have 1/4 tank left & SID average mpg of 37.6mpg. I love my diesel despite it's hiccups

    just driven to aylesbury and back
    860 miles
    1/4 tank left (of the second one )
    computer is indicating 66.7 mpg....(about 34 really )

    none of that filty diesel or that lpg nonsense

    400 hp and 34 mpg ...must be a reckord somewhere...

    And the award for the smuggest grin goes to...Ylee

    Bet you didn't use many of those 400 horses while getting 34 mpg though

    Mine did get a flat out run through 10 miles of wiggly lanes on this tank...

    James, what car+engine are you running LPG with ?

    Re: Filled my 900 today ...

    It's a 1993 900SE, Mark - more here. Non-turbo, I'm afraid, but I didn't really buy it for speed ...

    I have to say, the LPG conversion seems to work very well. The only difference running on 'gas' is a slightly uneven idle, and that's only noticeable if you know to look for it.

    Cheers

    James
