The car is now 19 days old and has covered 2300 miles mainly on the motorway at 75'ish on the clock. I have been driving very cautiously apart from this morning and must say I am disappointed with the consumption.
Official combined figure for the new D5 manual - 50.4mpg. Hmmm! doesn't seem very realistic. And don't forget the guage is usually around 7-8% optimistic.
