   Anywhere between 1mpg and 70mpg...
   
   Is it std?
   Do you hammer it?
   Live in town or country?
   Short trips or long haul?
   Regularly serviced?
   On your own or full of fat birds?
   to name but a few things that will effect fuel economy.

   If you cant afford to run a saxo, then youre pretty fucked tbh!
   Who caresabout mpg? If you have to worry about it, the car clearly isnt the car for you.
