sounds about right for a petrol from what ive seen on here. Take your foot of the gas earlier when slowing down.. My diesel lasts a bit longer like that. It also saves everyone else' behind you...

I am about 20 on normal roads and about 22 on motorway.
That is just from the dash message tho, never actually measured it
Mine is a 97 V8 HSE auto

I can't use the onboard calculator as I run exclusively on LPG. On our trip to Spain where LPG isn't so available I had to go petrol for a hundred or so miles at a time. I zero d the secondary monitor and, thanks to the wife's caravan loading, I was averaging one to the gallon. Seriously 12 mpg over the Pyrenees and about 15point something chugging along the motorways. When I first bought it before it's conversion I was reading 20 to 24. From the Midlands to North Wales.

B..... hell, I've equalled that when I had WW2 trucks
The 3.5efi autos I've owned have returned 21 - 23 on a long journey & that's including travelling at the legal speed limit on roads that allow it, calculated using the full-tank to full-tank method.

it was thirsty! i towed a twin axle trailer with a jaguar mk2 on it,
6mpg was the average!!
i had a suspicion that the carbs were unbalanced and too rich! according to a mechie i knew the carbie models should easily see 16mpg.

4.6 GEMS on LPG I've seen gets between 12 - 15 mpg on town driving with the odd A road. Better on a run or petrol.
