be very careful comparing mpg from petrol to diesel cars nowadays - with the 16p/l difference. its like 15% more fuel if you use a petrol.

you can get 40mpg out of a 1.8t that is chaeper to buy than a tdi

going by 100 miles to a tenner thats about 48 mpg (1000/105 = 9.5/4.54=2.1... 100/2.1 = 47)

and if you think about it 40mpg to 48mpg is about 15%!!!

clever oil companies we have isnt it..

this is coming from a red diesel, diesel, bio diesel, lpg and waste oil EX user.
