well, I work on the following theory just like some other people on here

Fill it up....enjoy it and when it is empty fill it again !
Not really too bothered about the consumption although I do keep a log of it and I constantly fill my car up letting it go no lower than a quarter of a tank which normally means 220-230 miles.

Average consumption is 29mpg which I too think is poor for a 1.6 but as 80% of my driving is urban peaktime traffic I guess it is not bad and is way better than the 20mpg of one of my previous cars !!
