85% commute which is 6 miles downhill on single track lane, 11 miles motorway cruising at “normal” outside lane motorway speed. Then reverse on way home with 6 miles uphill at the end. Mpg jumped for 3 days this week when the temp got over single digits and tyres performed much better. 
 

not really unhappy with the mpg just was hoping to get 300 miles from a tank before the warning comes on. Seems like that’s probably achievable if I take it easy. Real mpg on this tank was 31.5. Computer read 33.2.

 

will be interesting to see how it carry’s on when I’ve finished running it in and use a bit more of the performance.

 

Wow 27 miles in reverse is a long way. Have you considered turning the car round and driving home forwards? I think the economy might improve quite a bit!

Very amusing. Living in the back end of nowhere on a single track lane Sometimes it feels like I have to reverse that much for tractors etc.
