Its pretty bad IMO, I know standard they are only 40 but what can i do to perhaps increase MPG.
Small things i have done are have good tyres on wheels and filled with nitrogen.

All useful suggestions but they will make minimal difference. You're driving a 2litre n/a engine - 40mpg is a book figure and to get anywhere near that, you're doing very well already. You say its pretty bad, but you knew what the car would do before roughly before you bought the car. You can't all of a sudden make it fuel efficient, the engine isn't designed for that.
