What should I expect to get on a full tank of petrol?/ How Much is a full tank of Petrol?

I drive my cars medium to hard, and am curious to know what 200 miles a week will cost me. When I get the STI8.

the Subaru web-site has the 8 at 25 and a bit mpg, which betters the STi7's 23 and a bit.

suppose if you 'drive as intended' this will be less - my MY01 WRX averages about 23-25, compared to the quoted 27, so would expect the 25 of the STi8 to drop a bit in use!

glad the STi8 mpg has bettered though, this can only be a good thing overall.

I get between 18 and 20 on my STi7.

I don't worry too much about it to be honest, the fun factor is 11/10

STi&, normal driving with the odd welly, 225 per tank. Really heavy driving, 170 per tank. Very sensible driving 250 a tank.

.... So, the answer to your question (which nobody has actually given) Is:-

Forty quid (ish)

11/10 for fun is right, however
