Doesn't sound bad, but that's a very different mix from mine. I have
to do a lot of fairly short (< 6 miles) stop-start journeys with only
the occasional longer run. And when I do get a longer run, it's mostly
motorways, on which I tend to do 85 - 90 mph.

I don't look at the trip computer consumption (it scares me sometimes)... I
calculate L per 100Kms when I fill up.
I tend to look at the DTE when I drive.
