Economy wise I get about 40-44 mpg on Shell V-Power and 38-40 with Tesco's own on a daily journey of 7 miles on country lanes each way. On long motorway journeys I can get 50mpg with shell V if my right foot isn't too heavy!!
Looks like I will be copying you. I could have a second hand ES for £16-£16500 depending on mileage. However, the dealer contacted me today and offered me the SE 2.2cdti, any colour, full tank of fuel, mats, accessory kit (bulbs I think) and an iPod, 12 months tax for £15,500 - so deal is done and I'm even thinking of adding the leather seats for an extra £800, if the missus allows me!
