Do you have any tips for improving my Honda Accord's fuel economy?

What are the realistic fuel figures for a 2006 Honda Accord 2.2 CDTI Tourer? On average, I am returning approximately 39 -42 mpg for general careful driving. Can you suggest any changes that can be made to improve fuel economy. My dealer did a test for me two years ago and returned 51mpg.

That's realistic. It's a big car.

Real MPG enables you to register the fuel economy you are actually getting against your make and model of car, its engine and type of transmission.

Every time you enter an average consumption figure against your car, the overall average automatically adjusts to reflect it.
