Default MPG - what's yours?

Here's mine, from new to the current 16,600km.

My love affair with sport mode began after 2 months and now it's my natural instinct to shift the stick to the right as soon as I fire him up.

I haven't seen any difference in economy between 95 or 98 grade, but 98 seems a little chirpier for performance.

The spike @ roughly 25/09 was a slow drive to and from Dubai with foggy patches on the road.

The only engine mod I have at the moment is a K&N panel filter.

My car is probably at the extreme opposite end of the performance scale and fuel consumption is consequently better as can be seen from my long-term fuelly average (www.fuelly.com) of 40.9mpg over the car's recorded 21000 miles. The best tankful so far has been 48.2mpg!
