45mpg average here, since February over 10,000 mixed-use miles, from
motorway cruise to back lanes to mile-from-cold local bimbling.

Petrol, not diesel. Not even high tech - carburettor, manual choke, 4spd
box - and not even a cat to convert CO to CO2.

That's the 205, not the 2cv. That managed a little lower, about 42mpg.

Better not to ask about the v6 Shogun. 15 to the gallon from the last
tank...

Might be an idea to ask for some trainers for Christmas, it's not doing
you any favours driving around on those lead divers' boots.
