Finally got an mpg figure.
Today I refilled my fuel tank for the first time since initially filling the tank on the 3rd of January (I don't do a lot of miles). My calculated figure was 29.5 mpg which was a bit disappointing. My Jazz returned 55 mpg for the 62.5K I did with it. The only saving grace is that this figure was for the wettest and coldest months of the year. I got 275 miles out of the tankful and according to the Multi-Function Display, this was at an average speed of 14 mph. That is what driving in and around Edinburgh does. I would have been happier with the 32.6 mpg the optimistic MFD said I had managed.
I use BP Ultimate E5 97 RON. When you are filling up once every few months there is no point in skimping on fuel. The top-up took 9.3 gallons. Let's see what the summer brings.
