Miles per tank isn't really the right question to ask, since everyone's "tank" isn't necessarily the same. Some car's gauges read different, some fill up with a lot left in the tank, others drive around on vapours. S4's and S5's even have different sized tanks! Distance travelled for a certain volume of fuel (mpg, km/L) is the only way you can really compare.

I drive my car daily and get 380-400km from 50-55L. My average is ~7.5km/L (17.8mpg).
