Thats 6.03 miles per litre or 27.4mpg. Worse than before.
The fuel figure was derived from fuel put in, full tank at start + 60l along the way minus remaining fuel which was 4l from VCDS but as I now know there are roughly another 7l in there when it reads 0. So estimated 11l remain in the tank.

You'll never get an accurate fuel consumption figure if you use "roughly" and "estimated" values. The only way to do it is to zero the miles before the trip when you fill the tank. Then keep filling the tank and setting the miles to zero, noting the miles each time. And the end of the trip, fill up and note the miles. I've been doing this on every tankful for years (I know I need to get out more!).
