classic myoo 285 bhp/334 lbs. london to norfolk and back plus running around (snow blizzards etc) average 28mpg, so the 60 litre tank should see 369 miles, it also averaged that on a 2000 mile trip to south of france and back last summer.

Lucky to get 150 miles in town, and 100 miles if hooning around. 300 miles on highway at 70mph. 500bhp 2.5l

In the end do not worry about it and just enjoy it.
