Thats fantastic, you need to check your shoes though as they obviously don't have enough lead in them

Too much lead in your shoes Matt?

That is very impressive! Under what conditions did you achieve this? Down hill with a tail wind? I am lucky if I get 30-35mpg. I try to be good but the car makes me do it!

Not quite, my MPG is suffering badly at the minute (lucky to even see 40mpg on a motorway ). Its quite 'heavily' mapped and the flywheel is on it's way out which I have been told won't be helping things!

I get the same but remembered getting more previously so a couple of weeks back i did a 12 mile drive taking it as easy as i could.  No turbo, straight to 6th gear and cruising in country lane traffic between 50-60 mph.  From cold, i achieved 41.8mpg and it was increasing the more i drove.  I'd imagine 38-39 is easily achievable if you lose the driving passion on a day to day basis but hey, if thats the case we should be in diesels

Conditions -
dry pm.
On the motorway - no wind, nor downhill, in fact in some cases, was uphill 

Not light foot either. AT worst, when I CANE it , I get circa 25 mpg.

Car is engine-wise, totally standard. Needs a service though
