You must really give it some gas!
Unless you have modded... mine is pretty much standard
The worst i get out of mine is 240miles... generally backwards and forwards to work which is about 15miles round trip. Over winter in the 'bad' weather i was getting about 180... and that was in 4x4 90% of the time!

Mine doesn't have one either, i try not to run it too low but i did have it waaay into the red and when i went round a roundabout it coughed and spluttered as i pulled off as it had presumably washed to one side.
I typically get about 190ish to a tank, but i can stretch it to 210ish if i drive like the throttles made of glass.
