I've had my DC5 for over a month now, and cant stop smiling :D

Only niggle I have so far is im finding it hard to get 20mpg out of it. Im getting like 230m out of a tank, and spent about £300 on fuel for the month.

How about you guys:?:

give urself more time. when the initial "drive around aimlessly" phases passes by, your fuel bill will come down to a much more normal level. don't worry :lol:

I always used to get about 270 to a tank. After being done for speeding it went up to about 300-310.

I therefore deduce you need to get a speeding ticket to reduce your fuel bill!

its deffo all to do with how you drive it, i only really do short journeys, on average around 6-7 miles so im not expecting hiuge economy figures, but when i have travelled a distance and not used much v-tec ive got into the 300's off a full tank
