  • What's the bi turbo like on fuel

    Mine is pretty thirsty. Averaging about 34mpg at the moment.

    It is an auto though and mostly does shopping trips and 8 mile mixed town/country commutes.

    Don't know whether the face-lift versions are any better.

    I'm getting 41.8mpg average after 18k miles on mine. I agree with the tyre comment though.

      I suspect the government figures use the SRi on 225/55R17 tyres, with no factory fitted options

      So it's no surprise mine is nearly 40% less on a SRi VX-Line on 245/40R19 tyres, and almost all factory fitted options



      The EU Conformity Certificate shows my car is nearly 800kg heavier than the base line SRi model



      800kg heavier??? 2.4 tonnes. What are you driving? A Transit Van??

        My average over the last 40,000 miles is just under 40mpg, on an economical run on the motorway I've seen 55-60 mpg but that is very careful driving.
