Something definitely wrong there, be interesting to know what the use had been since the last reset, but methinks it had done a lot of idling. Only ever seen those figures if the car has been idling a lot straight after a refill and not travelled far - like less than 100metres! The figures get more reasonable within a couple of miles of normal driving. Mine averages 32-24mpg at 6,000 miles. Around town it's 28-29. Even using Sport and a lead foot doesn't give that bad a fuel use figure. I've never seen less than mid-twenties, and even that took some doing and was whilst the dealer was showing me the car functions when I was taking delivery and we had the engine running (it was dark).

Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.
, and loved it but around town found it to be ridiculously juicy, more so than my V8 so couldnt justify paying 40k for something thats worse on fuel than a petrol espicially with diesel costing more at the pump so my question is this....has anyone managed to get theirs worse than this.......
