What sort of miles to a tank do you get?

Mine needs a refill between 500-550 miles, and usually takes between 52 and 56 litres. Tank to tank that comes in around 44mpg. My OBC says 45mpg so reasonably accurate.

The 318D I borrowed for a few weeks would do over 600 to the tank, my C220CDi averaged around 720 miles to the tank, but it did take 62 litres (52.7mpg)

My driving is typically longer distance stuff 60-100 miles
