I've been on economy mode for the past month, every time i fill the car up, i have been making a note of the millage and then brimming it, I've had good weeks and bad weeks but on average i've been getting 51mpg, last saturday was a killer as my downpipe cracked and its lost its ability to get the high figures and dropped to 48mpg overall ( that trip of 420 miles maxed at 39mpg, but i was 3 up and had a camera kit and stuff) otherwise i'm pretty sure i would have reached the 55's

I've also come the the conclusion that shell V-Power is worth the extra 5ppl as my figures show that it adds as little as .2ppm when each mile is costing 12p the engine is far more responsive, and it seems more frugal under pressure!
