I do drive it like i stole it recently, just cant help myself 
anyone know of any decent honda specialists in bristol area?
also when cleaning my wheels tonight I heard a weird noise comming from the backend of the car on the filler cap side.
like it a pump sound??
the car was stationary and the sound was intermittent, evey 10 - 30 seconds for a short period

FWIW,
Average tank (mixed, mostly <45 MPH) = 220-240
Long Haul (~NSL) = 250ish
DILYSI (lots of
) = 180-200
All figures from brimming full to 0 lights lit on the gauge (fuel light is random and rubbish)
NB: If you are getting more than 250, you aren't trying hard enough!

Motorway driving down to Dover is 280miles for me. I do that on 3/4 tank so approx 320-330 miles for a full one & thats not taking it slow either. Have always been impressed with the consumption.

When I tracked the Cayman S at Bedford in April I got 10 to the gallon so maximum about 130 miles to a tank (60 litrs)
was fun though

the gentle moo-ing is to be expected post spirited driving. Your consumption is probably down to you experiencing it pulling better with the revised airflow, ease off on the right pedal for better consumption.
