I'm on LPG I never really think about mpg. I guess, it only realistically compares to a diesel, but drives better, to me... I think many peoples idea of shown mpg, and actual mpg, is often very different.
If you are worried, then plan journies better, use car less. And use the pedals less. I mean both, as you can save a lot if you are reading the road. The way some people drive, is often ridiculous. Especially, when you coast up to the changing lights, and see them, sitting there, after they floored it to get past (me) and then just breeze past them, always makes me laugh.
And you see people driving at 90, for what, so they can get there, maybe half and hour earlier, for a journey, only to have a typical meeting, or minor thing to carry out.
Don't even get me started on the old 'filter in turn' method of lane/road narrowing, so many hold ups, due to that old chestnut.

Seem to be getting about 23 mpg in mine, although I am still occasionally having fun with my right foot

That's one of my pet hates too........we need a strictly enforced law about merging in turn like some other countries have  2017 4.4 SDV8 Autobiography

Wow, that's around £1.80p for a smaller US gallon. Around a year or so ago, we were paying nearly £6 for a UK gallon, -that's like triple the price. With size adjustment.

But, we do pay less income tax. So, that helps non drivers.

4.4 V8 petrol - between 19 and 20 mpg and up to 22.5 on a long motorway run.

Just under 400 mile to a brimmed tank on the last refuel.

About 29mpg (4.4 SDV8 L405) and that's a mix of town and mway GONE 2010 Facelifted 3.6 TDV8 - Stornoway Grey + 22" Overfinch Olympus
