Hmmmmmm I have got original tyres with 20k miles on a from new MY23. A significant percentage being on motorways. 5 trips to Scotland giving about 6k just getting there. Off the beaten track up there so slower narrow roads doubling that. Some " getting a move on" .....no speeding, officer, honest! 🤫😇😬 The car handles better than my previous Plus8. Wales' 20mph zoning plus other speed restrictions reduce options too. No track days. Sport mode for quick overtakes.....my co-pilot watches the speedo ( gauge you pervs) and does sometimes comment on the acceleration and , ahem, the overtake speed. All done to minimise the hazardous overtaking manouvre to keep it safer. Clear road, mirror-indicate-go. Job done. No kittens have been harmed when doing this. Tank capacity? Nowhere near the theoretical. Just use 250 as a rule of thumb leaving a decent margin. Handbook says 38litres? Some say 33 usable. On board computer shows mid 40's mpg on gentle runs giving 327range @33l. Rubbish! Still much better mpg than the Plus8 though, and that had a 55l tank. Car is a joy to drive, auto or paddle.
