Hi Mark, welcome to the forum, I can't remember exactly what I got out of my X5 but that sounds about right for town driving. Post some pics if you get a chance!

And yes that sounds about right depending upon the engine version (single or twin turbo). Stop start traffic will wreck your mpg. Allow 25-30% lower than 'official' figures as those aren't worth anything in the real world.
