Hi blaze591. I have driven my D5 from new for about one month now and have covered just over 4,000 miles. So far the computer tells me that average mpg is 39.5 and that is about 70% motorway driving (mixed speeds due to traffic but mainly 70 - 80mph) and 30% town. If you did have a heavy foot I suspect this could drop significantly, although to counter that, the engine still has to loosen up a little I suspect.
Hope this is of use.

Regards, Mark.
