I popped to see the folks tonight and again took some pics of the trip computer to see how much it changed driving about on normal A & B Roads, with some dual carriage way.
I again drove nice and easy and the overall mileage to the tank had decreased by 100 miles, but the average was still over 50mpg, so quite pleased with that.
She can be quite thirsty as when I did put my foot down coming off a roundabout or coming out of a corner, the instantaneous MPG figures dropped right down to the 20's. To be fair, totally expected, having the engine it does, but it's good to know it's fairly decent on fuel if driven easy.
The V50 D2 I had before sat at mid to late 40's all the time. But that was a bigger car with a small diesel engine.
Stopped off in a random layby on the way home for some pictures
Suffice to say I am dead happy with this car. Lovely to look at, fantastic to drive, comfy as hell to sit in and all the mod cons I could ever want or need.
Looking forward to making it my own and adding my own personal touches to her.
