No idea. Nothing in the car to tell me.
I can get around 230 miles to around £60 though. |

Getting 30mpg in my 1.4 8v , which is manily town driving. I never saw 20mpg in my scooby tho, it was slightly tunned tho.
Come to the conclusion that the bigger engine 206 cars are just has good has the smaller petrol cars around town if not better, and they do better above 60mph.Whats the point in them then apart from the small saving in tax and insurance.
My partners 1.4 hdi is getting 50mpg average, thats the way forward for running costs.

Asking a TU1 or TU3 lump to lug nearly a ton of weight around isn't going to result in good mpg figures

The 207 is 300lb more, so whats the point in the small engine cars unless its a hdi. Cheaper insurance only thing going for them, i spent £900 on mine now and i need a front wheel bearing and crank oil seal now. I need to keep it now for what i spent on it, but i wished i had put the money into a hdi instead.
