just to make sure we're not comparing Apple to Oranges, what're the
sizes of the tanks we're talking about?
450 miles in a tank that holds 22.8 gal (or more) like the one
listed below isn't especially great; that's not even 20MPG. is the tank
of the 'petrol car' you're referring to anywhere near that large? (most
aren't.)
cheers!

I am having trouble accepting the terrible gas mileage of petrol cars compared

accept I may get far less than that on the freeway chaps my hide

Using discount fuel cards from local grocery chain, I save 20% on diesel.
Filled my E300 with 22.8 gallons @ $3.22/gal. Car returned 27.3 mpg.
Still smarts that diesel is more expensive than premium.
