Welcome.
Mend the car. Put 3 bar in the tires. Get an OBD2 tool like ScanGauge or UltraGauge if your car has an OBD2 port (post '96?). Keep the speed below 100 km/h.
Have to say that 50 mpg seems quite a challlenge with such a relatively short commute. I can hardly maintain that with my Insight under winter conditions, and my commute distance is double yours.
When it is freezing I lose more than a quarter liter compared to my average consumption just to heat up the car during the first 10 kilometer, after that economy is hardly worse than during summer.
