The computer showed average 52.9 mpg with an average speed of 39mph, These are figures could only dream about but he was incentivised by agreeing to fill the tank when he got back
He'd never even driven the car before

that's about right , The V60 auto with the later 2 litre diesel will do 70 mpg under the same conditions ...
