....mines an auto and have tracked my mpg (calculated from fil-ups) since I've had the car - yes, I know sad or what...!!

Lowest I’ve had is 19mpg which was round town.
Maximum is 39.6mpg – long motorway trip driving like a granddad..!!

More realistic is a combined local running figure of 24mpg and about 34mpg on a long run keeping it around 75 – 80.  The trick is to use the fuel shut-off on over-run as much as possible – ie keep it of cruise…!!

Hope this helps
