Range

[SwampySi]

Hi all,

Does anyone know the range of a brimmed T350? I'm going on a 3 day tour of scotland and have concerns about the distance between petrol stations. I assume driving will be "enthusiastic"

[clive f]

200 to 250 smiles?

make sure applecross pass is on your to do list.

Depends on how enthusiastic!

Anything from sub 100 miles 'track style' to over 300 for a cruise.

I'd say as per above 200 should be safe.

I won't be that bad, it isn't rural Namibia, just refuel when leaving civilisation. Remember, the locals need fuel too. You'll get a couple of hundred miles from a tank - many roads are not fast enough for mega fuel munching.

[SwampySi]

True.. but would like to try to keep it on the good stuff

make sure you have your jockaneese phrasebook as well,its hard to understand some of these scots

250 smiles when cruising, mainly 4th and 5th gear... Std Box, Std Diff.
Fuel gauge only ever read 51 litres max when brimmed - supposed to be 55 I think.

[SwampySi]

I wouldn't be so concerned if the gauge actually read correct, mine varies from 4l to 15l depending on the direction of the wind (or so it seems)

Si just took mine to the lakes yesterday and got 23mpg going but a fair bit less on the way back ala 17mpg eeek, lots of camera vans and heavy traffic on the way out and lots less on the way back, So that would give ~200 to 270mile range to dry. Mine does seem to be running a rich map and could probably do with a bit of tweaking..
