The 318D I borrowed for a few weeks would do over 600 to the tank, my C220CDi averaged around 720 miles to the tank, but it did take 62 litres (52.7mpg)

My driving is typically longer distance stuff 60-100 miles
I usually fill up when the car has done 500 miles and the range is usually still showing over 100 miles, something inside me says not to trust it though. If I believe it I reckon it would push to about 625-650 which sounds about right but knowing my luck it would be on the motorway in between junctions when it decided to run out.

Most of my drives are shorter stuff around 20 miles so by the time the engine is warm I'm pretty much there. It is motorway for the main part and I use eco-pro when I'm just cruising along with the occasional burst of sport when needed. I have been using the super diesel which may not be doing anything performance wise but may just help a bit
