gotta love it........ £20/24.73ltr = 48mpg

80% was on motorways (80mph+), and the other 20% was a rally stint thru the new forest.......

i dread to think how u 2.0/2.0 turbo/scooby etc...boys live with like 20-25mpg especially with fuel prices gettin crazy! Isnt it just a killer????

98 Megane Coupe. It all depends how you drive as well, and what petrol you go for.

I've used Optimx since i got it (8 months) filled up with normal 97 Ron Esso and car isnt liking it much.

Doesnt help the amount of twats thinking their wee shite box full of gay mate will beat your car

no as i dont use my car often as i have no need to, and when i do use it - i want the power to be there

if i was out everynite i would prob get something cheaper to run, but (remember im 28) i dont wanna go out cruising or sit in a car park everynite, so it mainly gets used on weekends

The BMW is pretty good even though its a 2.8, if your sat on the motorway it uses very little fuel. But theres no fun in that......!
I have the same problems as Drew with the MR2!!
