Paul Dresser

Hi, I took delivery of my 300H last week, 1st march and on a 17 reg. Absolutely love the car after coming from a BMW 5 series. I have only had one decent run to Liverpool which was about 48mpg. Since then it has been short trips, about 3.5 miles to work on back, or a run into Leeds, about 6 miles. On these shorter trips, I am averaging about 37mpg. I am being very careful in ECO mode and using all the suggested tips (coasting, anticipation etc). I guess the thing that will be influencing this is the temperature, about 5c, the fact I am making short trips and the car only just gets up to temp by the time I pull into the yard, I have seat heater on and ventilation set at 23c to warm the car up. Could the fact that the car is new also play a part, do the engines loosen up? I was feeling a bit disappointed with the MPG but hoping it will get better. Any viewpoints on this. Cheers
