When driving out of town theres a few hills but nothing too steep, I might be wrong but 40mpg just seems too low...
Also when I drove the car home from London which was all motorway I only got around 40-45mpg
tyre pressures?
don't believe what others say regarding their fuel consumption :-)
70 + mph on that journey?

I would expect 50 + on a 65 mph trip on the motorway

just look at your instantaneous fuel consumption for a week you will soon see where its going wrong when it shows less than 20 mpg ..
