Ours does about 44 MPG - mainly around town, short trips. Does many more on the motorway.
A good motor.

Hi ihad 2 of these with this engine, on a long run I get between 53 to 56 MPG and can get 60 MPG if all of the running is done on the motorway. On short runs we get between 41 to 45 MPG.
We had had no faults whatsover but on very high milages say 60000 plus some problems with the pulleys which guide the timing belt have been reported.
The engine, if oil is changed at less that the 12,000 milessuggested in the manual, should be good for well over 120,000 miles

Just put the model in search and you can check all technical specifications, some will even tell you what insurance group it will be
