I drive it very gently at no more than sixty miles per hour, trying to get the elusive thirty-five m.p.g. out of it.

Honda civic for work - 35/40 mpg
Subaru impreza - paid good money to have the std power upped by 50%(320 bhp),so used for going mental at the weekends - 16 - 22 mpg.
No point in paying out high insurance,road tax,fuel ,etc to have a car sat in the garage for most of the year ,unless your a collector, imhoI have always bought a performance car for one purpose only , not to pose ,not to cruise , but to drive(fast when the conditions allow it)
