Drive wih load up hills, out of gear down hill till 5 under my set speed the back up to about 3 under the limit. I get to top gear as fast as I can and keep an eye on the instantmpg gauge. I use deaccel fuel cut in city. Miminual use of a/c. And cruise control on the flatter parts.

This car coasts really far.
After a few more miles and just me driving I'm aim to beat my old bikes mpg.
