MPG - My experiences of achieving official figures
Within certain limitations, and if I put my mind to it [with current diesel prices, I try very hard so to do], I drive very carefully. With a full load, my Suzuki manages 36 mpg, but with just the driver, this increases to 43 mpg. I am wondering whether that part of the site where we can record this, should allow for both types of driving.

The point is that the figure shown is an average of all types of driving. That is the only relevant figure.
