Mr. Green JST. Feel like a swap? No matter how I drive ---60 miles an hour or 70 can't squeeze more than 26mpg usually 25. now done 6000 miles and no different .
had hoped for 28, maybe the BAS remap will improve it a little when I can justify spending the money
spend few hundred pounds, improve by 2mile to the gall-- maybe? recover outlay in 45 years - makes for a convincing argument !

Was getting 29ish with general day to day use before the remap, a little less afterwards, but had a new transmission and lots of night driving that may have contributed to the drop. Only get 26ish on long motorway/dual carriageway runs, though - that's for a 110 with no rack. Average since new in October 2008 is 28.6 1953 80

Just filled my 90, did exactly 500.1 km with 48.26l, that's 9.65l/100km or 29.27 miles/gallon (UK), or 10.36 km/l

That's doing roughly 60% motorway, 40% city.

Best Yet!
Admittedly I am 'heavy footed' nevertheless last week I was travelling for 3 days anyway between Tidworth in Wiltshire and Bournemouth! Up hill, down dale and a little frantic dual carriageway driving! Filled right up to the gunnels before hand and can normally expect about 45 miles before the needle moves!
Ultimately I was very surprised to work out that during my 3 days of flitting I returned 29.36 mpg! Best yet that was! I have recently started using Millers diesel treatment too, that seems to have abated what I suspected to be an occasional sticking EGR valve as well!

As you can see above after a service at 6,000 miles my mpg dropped and then again after a service at 10,000 it started to go up again- other than the 19mpg (was in a rush for a whole tank). But now, doing day to day driving I am averaging 26-28 mpg with the odd 24 (motorway) and sometimes as high as 29 (cilled out main roads).

I am running with a snorkle, and have 285/75 BFG M/T. So if snorkle knocks off the mpg- as standard mine should be running well over 30mpg combined!.......or the snorkle isn't taking anything off Wink
