Very recent trip to south east, varied driving from 70 ( and a bit faster especially in mid wales ), 50, local speed limits and car fully loaded with 2 people and camping ( not glamping !! ) gear from north wales to Guildford area, 58.4mpg on shell ordinary diesel.
Pleased with economy but car did not like hills much, particulary the hill outside Gloucester to the switch back traffic light controlled junction to cirencester.
engine oil was changed before journey, the 10-40 home bargains viscol brand, but will change fuel filter as out of time 2 weeks ago, when it should have been changed.
We did about 100 local south east miles as well which are included in the mpg figure. No air con but windows open and gentle driving.
