Hmm they're only retuning low 20's MPG wise. Anything a little more economic?

The thing with a Bongo is if you're going to run one you can't worry about the mpg, it's just not that sort of car.

I've always had 330s as dailys but obviously if mpg is a concern a 320 sport or similar would be ideal. Can't think of a comfier and better spec'd car for the money.
