I've attempted to do the 'captain sensible' on a full tank to see what it can do but slip roads always = foot down...as does pulling off from traffic lights, dual carriage ways, b roads, chaved up Fiesta ST/Corsa etc etc.

I seem to recall that in my list of reasons to buy an S2000 "outstanding mpg" ranked alongside "outstanding luggage space" ;-)

It's strange but my MPG goes up when the wife is in the passenger seat. You would have thought it would be the other way around.

Since MPG is an inverted log scale, I'm a bit unclear about that...oh yes, got it!

Co-incidentally, I was getting a similar MPG figure to the OP last week. They'd kindly loaned me this Jazz CVT...
