Lazy lurker ...
Haven't read all this thread but are you concerned that the car APPEARS to do 8mpg or actually DOES do 8mpg?
My son has an unhealthy respect for his mpg reading in the car but my view is that the only real measure is by brimming the tank, doing the miles and then brimming it again. Do the arithmatic and that's your consumption for that tank's worth's driving conditions.
Or am I missing the point?
All the best.
