I have a Nissan Almera sve 1.8 engine (and thats the limit to my knowledge on cars, I think i spend about £45-50 on petrol to fill my car up.

I have to drive to London from manchester (aa routefinder calculates my journey at 210miles.

How much do you think i`ll need to spend on petrol, I have to do the journey twice (there and back) so thats 840 miles in total.

2 of the journies will be on sunday night (manc to london) so i hope its quiet, whereas 2 will be friday night leaving london at 5, so might be busy

    Your tank holds about 10 gallons.
    420 mile round trip at 42mpg would be 10 gallons.
    So it'd be expecting it to cost about 1 tank of fuel per return joruney.
    Happy chappy
