Hi, I drove my bog standard Jimny Sheffield to Stratford as a fuel test and got approx 34MPG overall. 200 miles return on Motorway plus about 60 miles around town = approx 260 miles on a tank.
It's not so much the fuel but the route.
Based on the on board computer my VW Touran 2.0 TDI on a very steady run gets 53 mpg. My average over 4000 miles is 42 mpg
However going from Sheffield 'up north' south to Stratford on Avon I get better mpg approx 56 mpg but going home drops to approx 48mpg. I seem to be going up hill more on the return. I'm not joking.
