Also checked it agianst the fuel amount used and it was right on the money, i did notice a big difference in driving north of sydney where i saw mid 8s, alot more hills, crappy roads and heaps of traffic.
I know it seems hard to believe but i double checked everthing.
I know this is a thread where you just state fuel economy, but is your car stock or any mods!!!!. I am still shocked at those figures as the best I got as stated was 9.4 on a recent trip from Mt Barker here in SA to Melbourne.
