Blimey, I thought that I was doing well managing to crack 55mpg last month! Well done that man. I've just had two lousy tanks only managing 44 mpg-ish. serves me right for using supermarket fuel and Shell. I have just brimmed mine with good old BP diesel so hopefully that will improve matters. It normally does.

This time of year will not help our collective mpg's as the temperatures are falling so that means that the engines have to work harder from cold thus knackering up the mpg's. On the flip side, the performance will improve as the air is more dense and full of loverly oxygen!
