Fair play they are damn efficient!
I've always managed to meet or exceed the combined MPG of all my cars, my current daily is a 1.4 diesel Toyota Yaris and im getting between 64 and 69mpg regularly on my commute, think the advertised combined is 64 so im pretty happy with that. Should be hitting over 70 in the summer with warmer weather.
In my last car i could get 40mpg out of a Honda DC5 which was rated at 31mpg combined and 37 extra urban so was pretty pleased with that!

Ive never read any test report in car magazines where they get close to the official combined, let alone exceed it- not even the hacks on Diesel mag!
I wouldnt want to get stuck behind you on the road as i imagine you free-roll wherever you can and drive 45mph everywhere else!

I do like the citreons ds3 nice car and just about right price
Just dont go paying 25 30k for the biggers ones
My mate bought a picasso fully loaded cost 25k a few years ago and got offered 6 k trade in a year n a bit later but that ds3 should hold its own its cheap fun and. Good mpg things change
That 200 is nice but 20k prob try wangle a nurbergring corsa for that
