I fitted an undertray to my C4 after reading some of the early comments on this thread.

I know it's not conclusive as I've only done about 400 miles so far, but the fuel computer is showing a 2MPG improvement. I also feel much happier about having to go through all the standing water around the lanes at the moment!
