My wife has used it for 3 weeks back and forward to work: 5 miles each way plus a couple of 30 mile trips thrown in, plus we have just been away for a week and clocked up 2 x 160 mile trips plus a couple of 80 mile journeys; in all about 800 miles and the car is averaging 53.6mpg based on fill ups. The trip computer is showing 54.9, so is only about 3% out, so I am quite happy with that.
Other impressions after the 3 hour journeys are that the car is very comfortable, has a quality feel about it, which I did not expect, and the engine is gem; it is quiet and pulls like a train. I am very impressed.
I took the XC90 out after we got home this afternoon and it felt like a tractor.

And would the Mrs. go back to a manual now?
