Fuel economy... Is mine good or bad?

[Conker]

Did a round trip today of 345 km`s filled up before i left and again when I got back home.
30.41 ltrs of fuel
Took it nice and easy.

345 divided by 1.6 = 215.6 miles
30.41 lt divide by 4.54 = 6.69

MPG = 215.6 divide by 6.69 = 32.22 MPG

I was shocked myself but i did take it very easy.
If i drive it round town like I did my old car I get around 23.

Well I just returned from Portsmouth (to Preston) which is about 310 miles. I managed to keep my speed down to between 65mph to 70mph ie non-turbo all the way. It cost me £30.81 which means a return of just over 32 miles per gallon.

Although not in the same league as a car (my dad gets about 65mpg from his Peugeot), I guess that's not bad!!

thats sounds about right. we got 2.4, and we went to preston from southampton in august on motorways all way doing steady 75-80mph
used about £36 worth fuel.
not so bad

I know this is pretty sad, but I've kept track of every fill since I've bought my Surf a year ago - spreadsheet attached

22.7012863 mpg, £0.1588/mile!

so it was more economical when you bought it, or have you had some new boots

it would seem so. It looks like it's more economical in the cold weather, which would make sense. It looks like economy dove a bit after the new head.
