    Im very much doubting these numbers unless your town driving is constant 80kmh? Or is mine just that uneconomical?

    City driving avg 60km hr but some stop start always see the trip at 11/L worst was 12.5/100 with some aggressive driving hwy usually in the 8s cruise control I suggest getting fuel filter or injectors looked at if getting worse.
    last time I filled up 61.9L around town got 570km gentle driving equals 10.8L/100km 95% city km

    A lot of mine is around 60-80km/hr driving and I reckon it would get worse in the stop/start peak times, luckily I get to pick when I start work (and I prefer to start early in the morning so miss all of those headaches) going home as well I like to work a bit longer to miss the traffic. Round trip to work is about 40 km so not really a short run either.
