I can squeeze nearly 70 out of the old Cav tractor on the motorway if I stick at 50-60mph for the duration of an entire tank. Which I do too regularly

If you still have your 106 it has a 10 gallon capacity so just divide your total trip mileage from when you filled up to when the light touches down by 10. So if you filled up and then you managed 420 miles to a tank, you have roughly done 42 to the gallon. It's very rough but worked for me. On the flip side I've managed an impressive sub 10 MPG out of the diesel
