I do roughly 50 miles a day with a stop to drop and collect little girl from nursey and about 20 miles on dual carraigeway with Cruise on 70mph. I can average 41mpg, getting between 390 - 420 miles per tank. I am really pleased with this, I had a 1.9dci Laguna before and managed between 42 & 44 mpg doing the same daily journey
wow the comparison with the laguna is amazing
OR the 1.8 has great mpg OR the laguna was crap OR both
i am only getting 32 mpg from my 1.8 lately but this is lots of city driving and sometimes putting the pedal all the way down
