Cruised at 80mph most of the time, 40.2mpg so well pleased with that. (not mph!)

That’s good at that speed-I just love the French motorways. Presumably the reading is actual, and not car computer which is up to 5% optimistic in mine. Just completed 1700 miles to and around North Scotland coast, mainly open road for an average 41.6, but kept to 70-75mph on Motorways. Anything over 70mph seems to chew up the juice, but of course that’s expected. Have done 2800 miles so far in two months of which 10% is London urban driving giving average 39.5mpg which is really great considering the size/weight of the car.

About 1400 miles was autoroute/RN driving at 80mph the rest was local driving around.

The real joy was a run on a single road RN - got to give it some and it was a fantastic to pass lorries with such ease.........
