We average 30mpg in our 300 Tdi auto, worst I have seen is 28mpg, best is 32mpg. Ours is standard apart from a K&N filter.
Have you got a roof rack fitted? That can affect the fuel consumption. Also what tyres have you got? Ours its fitted with Goodyear GT+4's (road biased). Mud terrain or very wide tyres will also hit the fuel consumption.

Funny you should say that. My 200Tdi seemed pretty unvarying in both performance and economy, no matter whether running with just me in it, or with a fully laden roof rack and 6 passengers. In contrast, the TD5 economy took a dive when I put the roof rack on, and running heavily laden I can't even bring myself to check the economy.

Managed 29MPG out of my 300tdi non cat with big intercooler on a run. Usually about 26mpg mixed driving.
