  I used to get it on plain economy out of the 12v   Not doing any more or less miles than I used to. 
 
A while ago there was a house for sale walking distance from work

~37 mpg in the cold, it's moving up to about 40 since the weather has started warming up.

My CDTI is sitting at 41 MPG right now. When it was cold it was 36 due to lots of short runs.

roughly £80 a month I guess, used about £100 last month. Just put £25 in now and that's taken me to just under 3/4 tank. It seems I get about the same mileage out of 3/4 tank as I do a full tank lol wtf 
before I moved out of parents I was probably using £40 a month ish

Not too shabby, I suppose they're lazy engines so if you keep the revs low they still go.

Most I do is 10 miles stop start to work and back, don't think I've been a significant distance in it yet, that's with a box on btw, mileage doesn't seem to change much.

I don't have a box yet. 
 
On a run back from near Scunthorpe to Liverpool after I bought it I saw 56 MPG average travelling at 70 in 6th all the way. Not been near that MPG average since though. I get the train to work so whenever its used its purely for short 2-3 mile trips to footy etc if that. 
 
Trip from Liverpool>Hull>Liverpool at 85mph in 6th most the way saw 48 MPG average.
