I have had my (manual) car since september 1st, and have covered approx 18k miles to date.
These miles have been accumulated on a mix of all types of roads and conditions. I don't use large throttle openings in towns (much) but tend to work the car quite hard out of town - the lack of low end torque combined with that straight six howl encourages me to hang on to every gear!
Where conditions permit I will cruise in the high 90's (very occassionally above).
My MPG rarely differs; I'm always on a forecourt between 330 and 350 miles and need somewhere between 57-60 litres.
This equates to an average MPG of approximately 26mpg and this has been repeated over those 18k miles
