Mileage Range

So, I just filled up and it was £115 which is my new record; as if to commiserate the car decided to show a range of 420 miles.

Usually on a full tank it’s in the high 300s.

Just wondering what you typically see as a full range?
Obviously depends on the model, mine is an R AWD coupe.
 
It depends on your recent average MPG, If you've been driving around town for a while it will be a lot lower.
 
Anywhere between 280 and 460 depending on the previous tank usage and mpg. 38,000 miles complete although it could be going to be replaced by a Tesla Model 3 Long Range with these crazy petrol prices!

You've not been keeping up with the crazy electricity prices, then? ;)
 
On my round trip to Gibraltar (over 10 days) earlier this month mine was showing around 420 each time I filled up. Prices in France/Spain varied from €1.80 to €2.25 a litre 😳

I wouldn't charge it at home, wouldn't even have or need a charger. Free charging at all offices and Tesla supercharger network via work. £0.00 a mile.
No noise or drama though.
 
Currently getting around 380 - 430 to a tank on my tour around Portugal, but it varies depending on the terrain. Worst MPG I've seen on a tank was 26, highest is the current fill-up, at 34mpg.

Back home in the UK, I'm lucky if I get 20mpg out of an average tank, which is under 300 miles to a tank. I'm normally smiling too much to care. Here in Portugal I might look like I'm smiling but I'm grimacing with fear, wondering if I'll make it to, through or out of each corner alive.
 
Filled up yesterday, £113 is a new record with standard shell fuel, not even V-power!
Only getting 275-300 per tank… could be to do with a dodgy cat which is being replaced soon.
Genuinely considering taking the electric car to Devon rather than the F due to the £200+ in fuel just to get there and back! :(
 
393 miles available last fill up. I've just done a touring holiday all over Scotland, taking it easy most of the time, and averaged 31mpg over 2,000 miles. This V8 R is the most economical car I've ever owned. There again, sometimes it isn't ;)
 
As an addendum, this latest tank has seen the car reach 395 miles - before I parked up at the hotel - with 80 miles estimated range left. It's going to be significantly less tomorrow as there are many many long tunnels between me and Santander ;)
 
Thanks for comments.
Filled up again yesterday, prices creeping up further still but I was on 1/4 so under £100 to fill,
Range this time was 376, but was touring round Devon lanes and busy motorway home so less efficient than the empty motorway and sensible drive down on Friday morning.
