    530 miles (in a 65 litre tank) equates to about 37mpg..... which is pretty good for non motorway box'd driving, but not what your OBC will say

    I don't let it get into the red and very rarely the light comes on before I fill up, so maybe slightly more.

    i would not reset the trip let it run to over a 1,000 miles then read the MPG u should get a much more realistic reading.

    I have a CDTi Sri Estate 54 plate.
    Last year - and this was calculated - my mpg was 38 for the entire year.
    My worst has been 34mpg calulated on a tank
    My best has been 48mpg calculted on a tank.
    My worst milage on a tank has been 354
    My best milage on a tank has been 538
    I normally always get 400+ to a tank on the journey style it does.3 school runs per day for example.
    In all the years I`ve been on here ,I came to the conclusion long ago ,that the estate will never get what vxl proclaim it will on mpg.
    Also those that have posted before about mpg, the estate always does poor compared to the hatch back - or those cars that don`t have a DPF.Which I think ,kills the mpg on them.

    My car's not too bad on fuel then. It's averaging just over 40 mpg. That's a combination of in town, A & B roads. And thats for an 05 Estate.
    Oh and its a 3.0 V6, totally standard.
