Ford focus 1.8l petrol - Mpg on 1.8L petrol - starfield

hello drivers,

I just want to do a survey for the 1.8L petrol on focus mark 2, i own such a car. It will be best that everybody provides their average speed from the trip computer of their vehicle in order to have a better understanding of the type of driving the said vehicle is subjected to.
I live in south london, I work nearer to the city and i drive there.
I am getting an average speed of 12mph with an mpg of 28mpg.
What is the reading on everybody else's trip computer. I would very much appreciate the input of other 1.8L petrol of other makes as well. Please give as much detail as possible such as average speed, etc.

Good Luck with your survey.

Well, when I had my Mk 1 Focus 1.8 manual petrol it did 38mpg. This would be mainly mixed urban driving, hope this helps.
