The trip computer reported 50MPG on a 70MPH Cruise Control trip down the M3 the other day. Round town it's more like 43.

Thats really good! the official figures say 35.7 - 47.9 - 60.1 MPG range. Pretty good chance that when the engine has done a good few thousand miles more you will actually see the 60.1 on the motorway, add to that the trip comp probably under calculates the MPG. Good news as I am also getting the 1.6 :)

    I bought the 1.25 (82)and i didnt test drive any of the other models,so i dont feel like im missing out on anything.Before i got this i had a astra 1.4 97 plate,and the fiesta is a lot quicker than that,when i come to trade it in though will probably jump straight into a 1.6,but until then im happy with what ive got :D

    So what did you decide on then JonLa
