I get
18-20mpg in urban traffic jams.
28mpg in light urban traffic
34mpg on fast motorways and A roads, including urban at each end.
36-39 mpg if really trying on long runs.
Would really struggle to get over 40mpg unless setting cruise to <70mph and resetting the DIS OBC.


***EDIT*** I should add my car runs cool (~70˚c) when a lot of air or cold air is going through the grille (fast speeds or winter).
Suspect EGR cooler thermostat is letting water bypass the normal thermostat.
