With my old car I was keeping track of MPG everytime I filled up, largely so I could see where all the money was going and it helped me see when something was wrong with car (MPG drops = need to top up oil/inflate tyres etc).
With the new car I'm experimenting with how I drive to get maximum fuel efficiency while still getting home at a reasonable time. The first tank I got 39MPG, the last tank was closer to 45MPG so a big improvement.
Change probably a combination of getting to know the car a bit better now and my experiments in driving style.
Now if only I can get to (and maintain!) 45+ MPG. Unlikely I suspect as last week was quiet on the road so I could go at the speed I wanted (half term?). Today was much busier with stop/start driving on M1. :(
