Its so much easier to fuel than my V6 ZT, ive done around 150 miles on £20 of fuel / 13.4 litres or 3 gallons filled it before to the red light went off, then put in my £20, then ive driven it until red came on again but I do drive quite gently.

I think thats around 50mpg isnt it? Ignoring the dash reading at the min, but its saying 53.2mpg which I know is too much for the short drives im doing at the min.

Going to do another £20 today and see if shes consistent.

I think the only way to get an accurate mpg is a brim to brim test.

50 mpg might be a bit too good for a diesel auto.
