Default Guidance needed pls guys...

Well its been a few years since I last had a lovely RB5. However, iv got the bug to get another Impreza. I currently have a 2001 BMW 540i Sport which im looking to part ex against a blobeye WRX....

The 540i I use as a weekend car as I have a 206 D Turbo for my commute into work everyday. My question is, realistically, what sort of mpg will I get from the WRX? Im doing on average 70 miles a day, 50 of which is motorway. Even if i drive conservatively, what sort of MPG do you think I will be getting?? Iv been told that the newer models are better on fuel than the old classic shape..

Thoughts would be appreciated and im looking to pay upto about £5k...
