I've done 20,000 kms and have used 1,700 litres of a mix of Shell 95 and Vortex 95. So that's about 8.5 litres per 100 kms or 33.5 MPG. Driven in a mix of city and highway environments. 2003 Manual 2.0 Zetec.
Since the fuel sender replacement, the gauge is very pessimistic and the fuel light comes on with more than 10 litres left in the tank. I usually put in about 45 litres after about 520 kms.
I heard the LR Focus doesn't have the appropriate knock sensor to benefit from a using higher octane than 95, and the 2 or 3 times I used Optimax, it didn't give me any noticeable economy or performance benefit.
