How do you drive?
Roads you drive on?
How long you drive for?
Time of day you drive?
Serviced regularly?
What MPG are you getting?
Are you using full tanks or just tenners?
Need a lot more information than what you've wrote.

True all Hdi's should have really good mpg , How do you drive and when was last service ? Also any weight in the car or even tyre pressures can make a difference. Loads of short journeys would make it worse and not as good too

And what mileage are you getting to a full tank?
What current MPG?

The fuel guages are pretty s**t on the 206, not accurate at all tbh.
Note how many miles you have done, fill the tank up and note how many litres you have put in. Then work out the MPG

You should easily be getting 60+mpg. I can do 150 miles to half a tank in my gti. When did it last have a good service?
