27-30 mpg for me but less if i'm doing constant short journeys, if I'm comuting from girlfriends then 30-32 is more common.

However when thrashing it like I've just taken the keys off a newly banned Mr Clarkson, then 20 and under is often seen :lol:

lol prob will come alot sooner than that knowing me.

although 55bhp and a ruck more torque than the focus will still keep me entertained for a while, cant believe the difference over the focus i mean my focus is no slouch really even for all the stick they get...i must have a good one as a ctr only just has the legs on me up to 80, 80+ pretty neck and neck.

anyway im bablin now lol

33-37 on motorway, 28-33 town driving.
Just let it warm up first and wait till it hits 30mpg, then drive it 'properly'.

Costs £50-55 to fill up and on average I do about 350-375 miles to a tank.
