£200 upwards.

Realisticly 3-4MPG aslong as you stay off boost asas it'll drink more than before.

Is a 1.8 (I assume thats the coupe your going to be looking at?) going to be that much better on fuel than your GTi?

And all you diesel bashers, I filled up for 111p today so you can shove your 44mpg up your arse !
