I live in urban driving hell, 4th and 5th gears are a novelty on my trip to work, a million sets of traffic lights 5 sets of school run traffic. Returning an average speed of 16mph with an average consumption of between 26 and 29 mpg. Not too bad, im usually changing gear around 3-3.5k rpm and the engine has just broken 2000miles. Usually when im on holiday and on a nice open road (say up around loch lomond, ive seen the instant consumption cruise around 40-50 mpg and downhill around 70-80mpg. I have felt the engine starting to loosen up a bit, seems to be getting a little more perky on take off and gear changes are getting less jumpy.
A tank lasts me about 2 weeks so im not really fussed
