Well I've got a standard VVT and the engine never struggles. It's very flexible. What do you get to a gallon??

I started off high and worked my way down ever since :-)

My 53 plate has A/T tyres, a 1 1/2inch lift and the roof bars are left on permanently, ... its well serviced, always has clean filters and plugs etc, the throttle body and inlets are all kept clean and i always use premium petrol, I get about 230 miles out of a full tank, have also never managed to get more than 34 litres in :)

Im getting 34.12mpg.
With fuel gauge showing below red I've only ever got 32 litres in so my guess is the reserve is 8 litres or 60 miles in my Jim
