I go to work about 25 miles away on B roads, up hill and down dale. About 25mpg if driven lightly, about 23 driven more spiritedly and about 21 if I go like a muppet!

Our 2.6 auto MV6 has averaged 28.6mpg over the last 1100 miles, and that includes a run to North Wales and Blackpool from Nottingham and then to and fro work at 9 miles town driving each way.....

Not noticed much if any difference between our facelift MV6 and our previous Omega, a 2.0CD auto facelift......Doesnt feel any more expensive to run to be honest, and lovely V6 noise and punch when needed......

That's pretty much spot on the same as mine.... I do 32 miles per day, equal mix of dual carriageway & A-roads, returns an average of 28. Can go up to 33 and beyond when on a long motorway trip. Mines a 2.6 auto CD. :y
