Mine said this also until i drove it even slightly hard.
I'd say 42-43 with normal and quick driving is realistic.My VTR even does 35 and i cane it everywere

no im saying average cnut, it works it out over a period of time so putting your foot down makes no difference to it really
your talking about the realtime mpg readout

My dash says I've averaged 46MPG from my 80s petrol engine, in the last 500 miles (it's wrong BTW, I'm not claiming it's accurate)

whitter, continue to post them, still good to look at the posts anyway
My average mpg is nowhere near the claimed 55.
I get an average of about 45 on the computer, i would say realisticly this is about 41/42.
Thats a daily drive of about 9 miles to work and 11 back, totally stop start on the way there and a few miles of mway on the way back before back to stop start.

I've never really relied on the computers tbh.
I used to get 160 miles to a tenner and i can get 135miles in my VTR.Not very scientific but hey.
I did get 580 miles to a full tank on an m/way run though.Made a change from the 210 i used to get in the scooby

I've done more working out about my MPG's and i get 70 miles to £10. Thats just over 30MPG. But my foot is either on or off. So it's not that bad.

Love it I would definately have one of these if i was looking to buy a car in that price range. All they need is lowered 40mm and the LCR splitter and the outside is done.
Theres a blue limited edition one on Pistonheads i desperately want a blue one but its £12,200
