We've had a similar conversation in UKRM about Tiger fuel economy
before on the 955i model and the 150-175 miles per tank range seemed
to be quite normal. My trips to work are generally done in 30-40
zones and are about five miles each way and generally in rush hours
where overtaking and filtering aren't always good options.

The rev counter rarely gets over 2.5krpm on these trips.
