that's saying something.


And yet I can't think of a more economical petrol auto with room for 5
people and some bags.


Only in town. On the open road it's poor.


A chap I work with gets about 51 or 52MPG overall out of his and that includes a reasonable amount of motorway driving. That's not bad at all for a petrol engined car of that size but not as good as the claimed figures , or as good as my Diesel Bravo for that matter - 57mpg on the last full tank (genuine not calculated)
