Talking TDCi Idle speed

I have noticed my idle is just under the 1000rpm and that the car will drive with my foot off the accelerator, it can even do it in 4 or 5 gear. It will accelerate to just over 1000rpm on inclines. Only if the hill is too steep will it require changing down to a suitable gear.

It is disconcerting when plodding around a roundabout and the vehicle powers around.

Its only noticable when I am driving very relaxed and not concerned about the torque band.

Any one else noticed this or is my idle speed too high.
