I'm averaging 34 in mine, but was driving home last night and couldnt let the engine overheat so I was going very carefully and managed 49.7  It wont stay like that for long though Welcome!
How the hell did you average that?  I cant get mine over 32.4 no matter how smooth and careful i drive!

Hi welcome, don't worry about petrol, if you are get a diesel or a 1.2 otherwise the ST is as good as any other car if you want, plenty of torque if you learn to use it and easy 30mpg and into the high 40's @ 60mph on motorway.

I use to get 34mpg, about 300-320miles a tank I think and £43 it cost me to fill (last year)
And MPG is better than useing how much to a tank as some cars have bigger tanks, different fuel prices etc
Got it up to 41mpg by shifting at 2k revs
