Default New Focus ST Question

Seriously thinking of looking at the new Focus ST petrol. I do a fair bit of motorway miles and although not the main concern I would like to know what you guys are getting mpg wise.
Currently got a Giulietta 1.4tb with 170 and that does 40 ish on the motorway and low 30's around town...hoping the Focus won't be a million miles off?
Thanks in advance

These are the mpg figures for the Focus ST 250 from Spritmonitor, so real world figures recorded by owners if it helps:

If you can stomach it a diesel ST might be a better choice for a motorway muncher. I have one and whilst it is obviously slower than the petrol, I found a bluefin remap transformed the performance to something tha can really put a smile on your face. Plus you'll get 55+ mpg on the long runs and cheaper insurance. Chassis etc is all the same as the petrol so handles exactly the same.

Hi,
If you do need any help with insurance at all for any vehicle you're looking at then please feel free to drop me a line.
Regards,
