I average 320 to a tank with mixed driving. I did get 450 to a tank ONCE! on holiday, do not ask me how as I have not got a clue, think it might have been a fluke with easy country driving.

R8NMG will become famous soon enough
Keep the 180 below 3k rpm in 5th on motorway driving and will quite easily getting 350+ miles a tank. I did managed 400 miles once and recently had 350 miles that's including London city driving.
