1 & 2, 30miles, 2 litres iirc.
3, all down to driving style, 18-30mpg
4 low 20's iirc, check parkers for figures per model
5, not manually on prefacelift, you can on facelift though with a simple button press,  tech2 can change it though  :y
(this is only climate panel btw, (press auto for about 3 secs to toggle F & C) ) not MID

Just done a 1300 mile round trip to Ireland and back mainly on A roads with the usual boot full of junk that we feel the need to take along.
3.2 V6 manual and got 41.95mpg thats spot on calculated from the trip and reciepts. I don't think i'll be complaining about that ! (ex thames valley police 140,000 miles) :D :D :D :y

I typically get about 37mpg on a run, average 31mpg and never got much below 30mpg. I get 27mpg towing a 16ft caravan at 60mph phill and down dale.
My old 2.5 auto used double the fuel.
