Only way to work out economy is "fill to fill, IMHO, take speedo readings on both occasions, then it's easy to work out an ACCURATE MPG figure.
We're usually around 28/29 MPG....mostly on longer trips, but it doesn't seem to vary much in suburban driving.

MPG
I'm at 25.8mpg at the moment but it increases every time i fill up, the remap is learning to make adjustments and saving fuel.
It use to be 22mpg when i first got it 2000 miles ago.

Fuel Economy
This weeks fuel is 390.2 miles for 68.62 litres of diesel, not much improvement since last calculation as I was carrying all the recovery gear for the week but still a healthy 25.85 mpg.

Just about to start reading this thread to see what glorious fuel economy the new truck is likely to be giving.

Very Happy

Just spotted this thread so just thought I'd add my two penneth!
From fill to fill on my 11 plate 110xs which carries lots of weight all the time I'm getting 28-30mpg on a regular basis.
I don't do motorways and rarely go over 50mph round the lanes.

Have clocked above 4.5k and my best so far was 25mpg - and that was motorway driving, cruise control on at 70mph. Not too bad I guess.
