34mpg

very good,better than I've ever managed :'(

I've never had more than 22

Best I've ever managed from my 3.2 is 31.5mpg driving from Lake District to Devon at a steady 75-80.
Shell fuelsaver petrol seems to improve the mpg by 2-3 mpg.

stop start daily commute. haven't floored it once this week and still only got 48 miles to 10 litres   >:

My readout usually shows an average of around 24mpg running on LPG (probably not that accurate).
Went to welsh wales last December and averaged approx. 31mpg (on LPG) which I thought was superb.
Omegas are pretty economical cars for their size if used for motorway work,but how many of us spend most of our time on motorways ?

If I do end up on the motorway its usually at uneconomical speeds.  :-X :-X

Although tbf my mid doesn't work. When it did I was always looking at it and trying to get it up. (pardon the expression)

MID reading or old school method?

Best I've got was 28mpg over course of 390 miles on a tank of LPG, doing old school way of filling, zero trip, filling. But with LPG pumps that not exactly accurate either!

My 2.6 auto managed 32 MPG on a recent 400 mile round trip from Lincolnshire to Wales

How accurate is the trip computer I wonder?

I did a couple of brim to brim checks when I first got my car & it wasn't too far off the mark.  :y

Its quite accurate running on petrol, but LPG its just guessing, and is quite often a long way off.
