As above, long weekend away 800miler round trip, tho must say i was staying within (around) the relative speed limits with short overtaking bursts before settling down again, managing 34mpg over the tank full. Not bad i thought? Is it good / bad?

Very good I'd say.
I'm driving like a complete grandad and struggling to get any better than 30mpg on my daily commute (25 miles averaging 40mph, mixed).

Not bad for your shortish runs every day, i'd get below 28 normally but with the price of fuel and the coupes' usual thirst i thought she'd done quite well. Just another plus point to having a coupe.

31mpg of late.
I try to target doing 40 miles per each 8th of a tank notch on the fuel gauge... not that I stare at it constantly or anything.

I normally get about 28mpg, although on a run I did manage about 35mpg.
Not too bad considering the performance.

I've been getting 400 miles from a tank, £60, I think thats about 32mpg and that is driving like a saint. anything above 30mpg is very good.

I get around 31 mpg on the motorway - not strictly economical driving and about 21 mpg on the commute - very heavy traffic
