3.0 will never be economical around town, but should improve a little if it was out.  But 18mpg isn't so bad ::)

It's pretty good actually... ::) ::)

Although, having filled up with £85 worth of petrol (wasn't completely empty) yesterday and being halfway down that tankful at 200 miles I remember why I like running on LPG ::) ::) And I've been driving a little more sensibly :-X :D
