Am I driving it too slowly?! laugh

Pretty happy with that! Mixture of some town driving, but mainly 60/70 cruising.

This is from a 400 by the way.

Filled up on the way to Castle Combe. Deserted roads and 5th gear most of the way - 30 mpg.

Just over half that on the next tank full.

Just back from Classic Le Mans and managed around 25mpg over 1,100 mls in my 500 (and that was with my son driving much of it - probably would have been lower with me driving more!)

You might get better MPG if you convert it to LPG.......
