Well an E320CDI gets that kind of mileage with average driving. Not with extremely concentrated economy-oriented feather-pedaled cruises.

Unfortunately, EU4 compliant CDI's have experienced good reduction in actual mpg figures compared with the I6 CDI we have here. At least, that's what I've been hearing from the UK Merc forums.
