Global Warming? Water in o/s passenger footwell.

Hello, I have a 117k 406 S 2003 Estate. In my area it has been raining a fair bit(lots of lying road water) and the o/s passenger footwell is saturated with water.

Poor Fuel Consumption 03 406 s 2.0 90bhp Diesel

I am a conservative driver...but am only getting 44-45 mpg. I expected a better mpg return. There is no smo...
