in regards to oil usage:
-what oil do you use?
-when was it last changed?
-do you have any leaks?
-is blue smoke visible?
-if so does it blue smoke more in any particular routines, like after going for a run, stopping for a short period, then re starting and producing big clouds?(this would be more noticable if you have a de cat)
-does your car run at correct running temp?(around half way on the gauge,
-are your boost pipes wet inside with oil?
answer these questions if you can, the more factors you can state the easier it will be to get pointers in the right direction

When we had that chat at the meet, I put a lambda in it two days after and it's still the same.
It's running very well too.
I must just have a heavy right foot!

I get around 40mpg if I drive it relatively sensibly. (A fair amount of my daily commute is relatively empty dual carriageway). Having said that, I did manage more like 30mpg when I first got it lol.
As for petrol prices, v power is about 95p a litre where I fill up. It is nice to be able to fill up from near empty for under £30 again

You're nowhere near empty if it cost less than 30quid to fill up! the tank is around 45litres! Do the math... lol.

It's Maths!!
Not Math you Americanised being!
Hehe.
Yeah, mines using shitloads of fuel more than anyone elses, but I really don't begrudge it using it.
When the blower gets turned up, the fuel will be RR tuned, so will see then if it's running too rich at the moment.

Balls lol.... Mine is running rich at moment and still see's 40mpg! have you checked the ecu etc if its standard etc? cos thats not great even if caining it!
Did I use any americanised text in there?
At my age I don't really care lol...
If My starlet did 150miles to the tank I'd sell it and buy my evo back lol
Im getting roughly 200 miles for £20 depending on how i drive the car
not had the car RR'd yet but i would say its running around 170bhp or more so im chuffed a peach at that.
Would go as far to say its better on petrol than my mums 1.2 corsa
is a glanza tank bigger than a GT one?
