Seat Ibiza 1.9 diesel using too much fuel

Hey guys, my girlfriend has a 1997 Seat Ibiza 1.9 SDI diesel (Non turbo) and she's noticed the fuel economy has taken a sudden turn for the worse, although apparently it feels a little nippier.

I was wondering if it could be an 02 sensor fault? there's no visible fuel leaks and it hardly smokes at all (Very odd I find for a diesel with 130k on the clock).

I've checked the water and oil to make sure there's no contamination, and it looks spot on.

I don't think she's had it serviced for quite some time, so i'm going to try that, but any input would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance, J
