Re: 307sw 1.6 hdi110, miles per gallon?

I am not sure about the intercooler. But I don't think so. What does it
look 
like? Godfrey says his does 28mpg! There must be something seriously wrong

there? Especially when Gary gets 50+ all the time. Gary, can I ask how you

have worked it out?

How can these cars with the same engine (mine is a 1.6 110 HDI) get 10, 15

or 20 mpg difference when we are all just driving normally? Also, why
can't 
I EVER get the one that does 50+ :)

I think I will change the fuel filter but it isn't going to make 10mpg 
difference. I did a 300 mile run yesterday all on motorways and never
above 
75 and still only get 40mpg, this is so frustrating. A mate has a VW T5
van 
that does the same mpg, it can hold 1/2 ton of stuff in the back, you can 
sleep in it, it looks cool and it was cheaper than my 307 and will be
worth 
more in 2 years time. Typical.
