At 80 your pushing it, in a petrol 1.8 your doing well to get that mileage!

if your dropped to 70 on the motorway and refrain from pumping the gas peddle you'll get into the early 35's if you want 38mpg you'll have to drop to 60!

i could be wrong, but the best way to get a accurate reading of your mileage is to fill your tank to the brim do a run and then fill it again.

this is a useful calculator if you need one

I did a 700 mile round trip in the wifes 105ZR a couple of weeks ago, and lets just say it was slow, and still expensive compared to my tractor!
