  1. I have just traded in my second ecoboost 1ltr Fiesta. the first was a 125 and the second a 140. The 125 managed 1 or 2 mpg more than the 140 but that's all. Both cars could get into the low 50s with careful driving, but with spirited driving I could still get over 45, and that was taking it to the red line occasionally (in the lower gears) as you will know doubt know even with the 1ltr engine, 3rd will see you in illegal territory!. The engine comes alive at just over 4000 RPM and really sings. I even had the superchip conversion on the 140 (up to 165bhp) and that didn't really effect the economy, but made it so much better with the increased torque at lower (3000ish) revs The handling is great fun (and safe) and progress is much more refined and quicker than my other drive ... a restored Peugeot 205 GTI. Ive been well impressed over 5 years of ownership!
