Picked up an ex demo Deep Purple Diesel Flair with Purple highlights, white mirrors, white roof rails and sunroof . Less than 1000 miles on the clock and over 3K off list price. Previously enjoyed a Mazda 6 but don't need anything that big and got fed up of being tailgated by black German built saloons on my daily commute. I now take my time and look smugly at those rushing past. On a 23 mile trip of fast A road 60mph and bumper to bumper traffic (15 minutes) , I managed 65 mpg.

Like the instrument console, you just have to be patient!

What sort of figures have other users of the diesel managed at motorway speed ?

Cheers

John

In getting around the same. Sometimes it creeps up to 70 and sometimes as low as 58.

I'm new to all of this. Just picked up my Obsidian C4 Cactus eHDI 92 ETG Flair and I love it. I honestly don't know how it differs from other models and engines etc. I just wanted the cactus. Waited for 4 months due to backlog at factor.
