2.5 V6 running cost:

At 38mpg, with petrol at 91.9p, cost is 11.97p per mile
500 miles will cost you 59.85

38mpg?

how do you get that ? i am getting 22mpg and theres is nothing wrong withthe motor  and its been serviced recently  

your going to blame it on my right foot??

Careful driving.

I have achieved 38mpg every week since August.....on my 500 mile a week commute!

And after 500 miles I still have no fuel light on!

I'm back on the forum and 2 weeks into my new job, and I'm loving it. I have driven and delivered many almost new cars, Jags, Volvo V50 and V70, Discovery 3, Range Rover, Vectra, Astra, S-Max, Passat, Mondeo, Daewoo Matiz, Merc A, C, and E class,  Focus etc. Best of them all ? No comparison - Volvo V70 2.4 Diesel Auto, fantastic car, and on a 300 mile round trip, 41.7 MPG. Worst car on fuel - Astra 1.6 Elite, only did 100 miles but only showed 31MPG, and yes I did reset the trip computer.
