Didn't vote for the higher gears (such as 6th) as I've not yet managed or tried the following, but by being in them and having a smile on your face, you're either:
( a ) Satisfied with your MPG
( b ) Going very fast in 6th to warrant a smile

Everyone is voting for third! Probably 'cos it can do most speeds we are allowed to do.
In a 220d, 3rd can get you from 30 to 95 in one big push

On my Carina E it was 4th, great for throwing the car round the bends through Powys at night! Course, got an auto now...

2nd gear + 400Nm of torque gets things moving nicely

You should try over 500Nm in 2nd gear
