    Does anyone have any first hand experience with mpg for these? I'm looking at a 06/07 model and am just wondering how accurate the online estimates are.

    :)

    A friend has one and claims he gets 38mpg overall including motorway and city driving.

    Parkers quote 40mpg, which isn't bad - is your friend doing more long distance driving or just tipping about?

    Drives from ballsbridge to Wicklow every day and then tips around in the evenings and at the weekend.

    I have the 07 model. I think anywhere between 36-40mpg is about right for mixed driving. Depends on how heavy the foot is, as is the norm.
