Welcome back to the VXOC FORUM.
Sorry for our lack of support over the last year but MYBB is back and so are we.
Let's get the forum buzzing again... (March 25, 2022)x
Picked up my 2013 Astra 2.0cdti Sri in late December 2015
So, far I am really happy with it, slight gripe is that it appears to be a long way off the book average mpg figures, I am currently getting a true 44.7mpg, even though the fuel computer says 47.9mpg
Its my 4th Astra, over the years I have had a Mk1 GTE, Mk2 16v GTE and a Mk5 1.8 Sri

Welcome to VXOC.
The MPG seems to be a sore point for most, you will never get the book MPG.
Well he needs to stop using chip oil! hehe
But I agree with @rusty2009, you'll never see the MPG they quote, I have an eco 1.7 and they quote something daft like 60mpg...I only do motorway driving and the best I ever got was 51mpg, currently at around 49.1mpg

Thanks for the welcomes, the mpg is certainly an improvement on my previous car which was an RX8
