The fuelly.com graph tracks just 454 miles and gives an average of 22mpg - it's two brimmed full tanks - the car had three quarters of a tank when I bought it, I couldn't monitor my first fill up as I sent away the IPK? screen to have the lines removed and it reset the trip meter on the dash when it was re-installed.

I haven't reset the trip computer, but it zeroed itself either when the battery was disconnected whilst the timing belts were replaced, or when the head unit was removed & replaced. I suspect the former.

The trip computer, this evening shows;
Trip 2* - 622.6
Range - 521
Average - 33.6 mpg
& Ave speed - 26.2

The distances are far too small for anything meaningful yet, but the disparity is huge.

*I have no idea how to switch between trip 1 (assuming there is one) & trip 2.
