what can I reasonably expect for day to day - to work driving - ie no thrashing - ( 30 miles daily - A roads - some traffic stop/start )

Sorry I have never worked mine out but the tank holds 40 litres and I typically get 230 - 250 miles out if it with combined driving. I have managed over 300 miles on a motorway run though
I do give mine death though

I got 38mpg routinely. Mixed bag of urban and country driving. Varying from pootling to thrashing.

I ran a Racing Puma for a year and I was getting 260 from a tank, I did see 290 once though.

Just asked my colleague, he gets 30-32mpg in and around London, 36mpg when driving up to Manchester on the M1/M6.

Auto Express have a used coupe article and state that the 1.7i can return 40mpg
Hope that hopes! I currently looking for one for the misses too.
