Managed to average 30.8MPG :D which is pretty impressive...
I drove from Kent to Liverpool and back. Did 577 Miles
I filled up with Tesco Momentum99 which was £57.59 (can't remember how many litres it was...)
I had just under half a tank when I got to me mums. On the way back I put in an extra £10.00, so altougher was £67.59.
Pretty much stuck cruise control on at 60MPH.
Before I left I did clean the MAF and MAP sensors.
A few years ago I managed 34 mpg from Maidstone to Ripon and back. The cruise control makes an enormous difference on long journeys.
Beating me I got 18 & a half to the gallon
I got a tank calculated 40.3mpg over 150 miles when stuck on slow moving A roads in my 850 T5... trip computer had it at 41mpg, the little liar. It was boring, but amazingly frugal when the turbo gauge rarely moves. Mods - feel free to delete this post if you are as bored by it as me :lol:

me too, not really into modern gadgets yet. I have an old Konica Minolta camera that will only accept max 1 GB micro SDs. So I bought some second hand ones from CEX....then ran them through a file recovery software that I had handy out of idle (perverse) curiosity....

I could put my figures up but I wouldn't want to make you all jealous.... Oh hang on, it's in my sig :)
Dirty ole dervs need not apply :P
Considering thats a long run mostly cruising at 60mph, isn't barely over 30mpg quite poor? That makes my old 540 seem frugal.
31.38 MPG from Killarney to Cork. 73.6 Miles with a 5 spd GT which I'm using in manual shift mode 98% of the time. Some stage it dropped to 8.7 L/100km = 32.46 MPG, but towards to the end of the trip I had to change gears frequently. [ATTACH=CONFIG]30556[/ATTACH]
I don't know what makes me more sad, the 1st image, or this
