Well i did a round trip from Hamilton to Galashiels, was following my sister in her Fiat 500 so was cruising 70Mph, and only was getting 21.5mpg, not that great really.

Something's not right there then, at 70mph cruising you should be off-boost and seeing around 30mpg.

Picked mine up on Saturday but not done a real lot with it for the last couple of days. Averaging 27.2 driving steadily but just listening to her purr when I get bored lol after having the diesel and averaging 45 I choose not to look if I don't have to!

well, 234 mile trip from our friends in manchester to ours in colchester - average speed of 61mph, average MPG was 35.6

Thats from setting off and doing a steady 70mph. We ended up with the fuel needle between the quarter & half way


But, to put it into perspective, we used a FULL tank on the way up (was edging below the red) after brimming the tank with fuel....... Take from that what you want

I drove up to Scotland and it was a mixture of giving it beans and cruising at 70-80mph, got 28mpg using 3/4 tank. Drove back down at the end of the weekend mainly cruising again and only used just over half, never managed to work out what I got on that trip though cause I waited until I was empty to fill her back up.
