Thats due to the VED, you should not let that bother you if you want a newer one and you can afford the VED..........GET WHAT YOU WANT AND NOT WHAT THE rather GOVERMENT SAY YOU SHOULD HAVE..at the end of the day its what you can afford so if its gonna hit your pocket too much then go as Martin says.

It does depend somewhat on how heavy your right foot is. I've seen as much as 32 mpg from mine at motorway speeds 75/80 mph. I've also seen it get as low as 16.8 when my wife used it for work for a week. She has 2 throttle positions ... up & down! I've also seen 16.6 mpg when i had a c...... on the back!
From the various time this topic has been discussed, there doesn't seem to be much difference between any of the V6's
