Maybe it's all that body kit weighing it down?

Um, when I drive it I'm getting anything from 20-25mpg, when the other half drives she's getting about 30-32. So I stick to driving the diesel!
1.8 8v.

On my 8v digi usually around 35mpg combined motorway/town.  Drops to 25mpg when giving it some. Best i can usually get is 42mpg but that is being REAL economic....  With my recent experiements with acetone (update to come when i am finished) i actually made it up to 51mpg!! But again that was driving like a girl......
