I'll let everyone know how I get on with mpg as soon as I pick up my car - only a week to go. I'm hoping to be getting in excess of 55 mpg as that'll make my daily commute a 'gallon a day' which is pretty good IMHO. I used to get 47 out of a 2.0l Vauxhall Vectra which I felt was pretty poor considering I usually get over 30 from a 3.5l petrol engined sports car. I've ordered a bunch of extras for the Cee'd including front and rear parking assist, scuff guards and a tailgate spoiler, all of which were not cheap despite the website pricing.
