You can drive in the LET using hardly any effort on the cars part to build speed up etc.... Done some long trips and got good economy

17 to 25 mpg in the XE

driven carefully on the motorway i get 95 miles to £10 of optimax. its more economical than my standard 1.4 16v sport

a well mapped engine with throttle bodies will see better mpg than a standard engine. but its so difficult not to boot it everywhere, the noise is so addictive
