On a few meets this year we have nearly hit 40mpg.

But you eed to keep the car below 3,000 revs and at 70mph.
Yep. I've had 39 point odd mpg on a few tankfulls of 'conservative' driving on unleaded. Since converting to LPG, I get the equivalent of 52mpg (at the cost of diesel compared to LPG) while the actual mpg is about 22.

I would also agree that it's not that easy keeping below 3k revs in any gear.
