we've got a little yaris, 2000 MY 1000cc, used to get around 45-50mpg thought that was good, then I found this site. Now the onboard avg mpg computer, on shortish combined runs mostly urban sits around 58mpg. But on a recent 125mile return run it was up to 64.8mpg there, and 63.9 return. Absolutely NO mods whatsoever, with a slow puncture in the front tyre. All down to driving style, mostly accelerating, then knocking it out of gear on the downhills/.slip roads etc. Oh thats UK miles and gallons.
