As per the previous comments really... My 3.0 will easily return mid 30's on a run at around 70-75. I used to get over 300 miles to the tank on my shorter runs to work (18 miles each way) as long as I behaved myself!

All pretty irrelevant to me now as I run it on LPG and it's even more economical to run! :y :y

On a legal speed long distance motorway run, they can return very respectable mpg. Around town, they ain't good.

Best I managed was on a holiday to South of France (the time when it made it back under its own steam!), so round trip of around 2k miles, going there and back on toll roads, but including all the use down there as well, returned 32mpg.  This was in my 3.0l auto MV6, and did include some 130mph runs to catch up with friends car when I got stuck behind lorries etc...
