I could post a picture of my old knackered 2.0 Audi estate - I'd be lucky to get 20mpg but I don't quite think that's what you're looking for

 Who needs 20mpg+ when you can wake up in the morning and say to yourself "I own a V12!"

My ZT quite happily gets under 20mpg, and sounding like it does I'm happy for it to do so

I don't care how much fuel the Jag needs, I just put fuel in it, then drive it, then fill it up again when it needs it. I'd rather waft along with a petrol v12, than a 1.9 DERV. Or 2.5 etc etc.

Averaging 18-19mpg although to be fair its mostly urban commute... seen 25ish on the motorway but was driving @ 70 or less most of the time...
