I get about 750 a tank in the Kia, but that's only a 50L tank. Seriously considering fitting gas to it though lol I am a tightarse.. hate paying so much for fuel.

Ditto. Or around about that. Running ultimate isn't cheap that's for sure.

No idea what I get to a tank though. Varies all over the place.

About 70 bucks a tank for the Kia at todays prices, but I use E10 in it and always have. Still, it goes nearly as hard as the VS and weighs just as much, even with its little 2L engine. The VS is (well used to be, its rather a long time now since its been on the road) just as economical though, simply because it runs on gas.
