The couple of long journeys we have done (Cornwall to Midlands) it has given a solid 30 mpg.......but tootling to the local specialist and the occasional local trip 5 up it only gives around 15-18 mpg, but then it’s all hills and bends around here. David

I took the hoses off when I bought it to make sure they were ok as I got the reduced performance message on the way home. They were fine. Hasn’t faulted since bizarrely. No smoke at all really. Drives well. |

No Andy it's not right. I live half way up an Irish mountain along small lanes and get 20mpg towing a horsebox. No, I'm not kidding.

I took it for a longer drive the other night as I have only been tootling to work and back in it.

Make sure you are getting up to temperature for a start, you should be getting up to temperature, which I think is 89ºc from memory, within around 10-15 minutes of driving.
