Amazed by your results with this! Just had a look back at the two I've owned in the past, both 1.6s, one UK market and the other a JDM import.

Absolute best I got in the JDM, about 33mpg US on a mix of fairly easy commuting and a few longer trips maxing out at maybe 65mph. Lifetime for that car was 27mpg US.

Fewer results with my UK car which I didn't own as long, but best there was 35mpg US and 28mpg lifetime (clearly when I had that car I drove a bit slower!).

Didn't make any special effort to drive economically with either of them (beyond being a naturally fairly economical driver) as they were very much both bought to have fun with, but to get over 50mpg US is impressive indeed. Your average matches the worst tank I've got from my diesel Smart...
