That's what I got out of the ZS 180 his last week!!!
Granted, because of the performance issues I've spent a lot of that hammering it trying to see if I'd fixed the problem.
What mileage to others get?
22 - 23 MPG for me, however most of that is very short trips to work, tesco and the likes. When I am out on a longer drive its as much for fun as anything else. Last fill up was 197 miles for £56
The 2 track days I've done I'm seeing around 15 MPG on track!

Well if you paid say £1.39 a litre thats roughly £6.30 a gallon.
£30 worth would get you about 4.76 gallons - so - 80 miles is 16.8 to the gallon.
Lot of assumptions there especially how much you actually used unless you brimmed it each time - but if you've been attacking it - sounds about right to be honest.
I reckon I'm getting the same, but I only ever drive it hard and only down lanes and short trips ....

I put £30 in when the fuel light came on, and filled it up again when the light came back on.

Mainly motorway driving for me and ide say im getting about 25 - 30 MPG but like Dan said that can easily plumet to 15 MPG when i put the boot down.
From empty i can fill it for about £75 - £80 and usualy get about 250 miles to a tank.

i get about 80-90 miles to £20 of fuel, worst i had was 65 mile to a full tank (track day :D)
i average 350 miles out of a tank best was about 460, thats with a fuel magnet thing on and using super unleaded, round a track lucky to get 70!

Only accurate way to measure is brim to brim, anything else is guess work.

i usually brim my van, reset trip, run it around for few days, brim it again and however many litres i put in second time, divide by 4.55 to get to gallons, then divide distance travelled by gallons....usually a pretty accurate way of deciding mpg
Brim to brim, I just had 32MPG.
