I managed 37 mpg few times, for life of me I canna remember how many miles to the tank it was, cant been far off what you had. My normal mixed driving gives me about 310-360 miles to a tank occasionally dipping below 290

I was regularly getting just over 300 miles to a tank from mixed driving, and managed well over 400 a few times on long motorway trips

the 180 seems to like sitting at about 80mph

Wtf? Only just managed to get mine to 220 miles to a tank!! And that's with constant grandad driving! Frequently less than 200 with normal driving...

Still after she's been serviced I'm hoping things will get better!

And luke, I bet the bottom half goes in less than 100 miles... lol typical rover fuel gauge!
