Got 39+ on way home from france in July. full load, 2 people and 1 german shepherd. BUT I was limited to <50mph as I had a "get you home" on probably 46-49 mph (as measured on sat nav)
AWD D5 auto
Also I have removed the 3rd row seats. must be at least 50-60Kgs worth of dead weight. (plus get a much bigger boot). Around town this seems to give me an extra 2 - 2.5 mpg.
I use cruise control everywhere as it is a more gentle form of acceleration. And it stops me going over the speed limit...
