Default How can I increase the avg mpg in my S40 Eco?

Hi,

Just got my car today (woo) and did a test drive. Done about 25 miles on A roads (avg mph 50)and got an avg of 55 - 60mpg. Any idea what I can do to improve it?

They say it could get up to 80ish but I can't see how that's realistic.

62 plate
fully serviced
60k miles


Anything that springs to mind? (apart from not use aircon or lights?)

Cheers,
