Girlfirends MINI Cooper has averages 40.3mpg over the last 3,000 miles - mostly dual carriageway and A roads - that will most likely not be hanging around to speed, however not a total lead foot!

I get at best 25mpg, however it has a cheeky kind of character which says put ya foot down in 2nd/3rd!

If you get better than the urban consumption from a car then smile!
SWMBO Getz just manages that even on long runs.
