I've got an average of 24.2mpg from several months driving. I'm going down to Wolvo this coming Sat so will have a go at getting a decent figure.

I know I can stupid figures as I had my old BMW 318ti (16 valve) clocked at 47.7mpg once on the same run - which wasn't bad as I used to get an average of 28mpg.

I know that trip computers can 1-2mpg out, but i usully got 35mpg (on a long run) out of my t4 auto. Best was 37.5, normal driving for the week would be 25-27mpg. This would be using 99 ron.

I could get 42 mpg driving at 60 in my old T5 and once acheived 37.1 mpg at a steady 70 mph over a 70 mile route. My S4 returns 30 mpg when cruising @ 50 mph in 6th!
