Let me work this out... For comparrison:-

I filled my car the other day, cost £45.

Petrol/gas is £0.939 a Litre in UK at moment, so

45/0.939 = 47.9233 Litres bought.

UK Imperial Gallon is 4.54 Litres.

47.9233/4.54=10.555 Gallons

I get aroung 300 miles on a full tank too so

300/10.555 = 28.4225 Mpg Average.
