Default V6 miles from a full tank?

Hi folks,

I've done a search before posting this question. Thought I'd post it anyway as many of the previous posts are quite old.

In currently using the V6 for daily driving. I work 7 miles from so does a 14 mile round trip plus shopping etc.

The last tank full of Tesco fuel from very empty gave just 293 miles. (Mainly driving round town with the occasional motorway journey) not hard driving etc.

Current tank full Im currently looking around the 330/340 miles from looking at the computer.

Just wondering if our V6 is more thirsty than usual. It's a 2.0 V6 auto.
I don't really drive it hard and treat the throttle like there's an egg under it. Going to work (one town to another on a mix of 30mph and 50 mph roads I'm around 21/22mpg)

Thanks Rob
