You certainly will notice this differnce in fuel costs if you are trading up from a Cavvy 1.7 TD matey!

What are you doing with it btw? Is it a clean one?

Expect your fuel costs to double if your used to TD consumption!

Mine does 17 around SW london - largely due to the ridiculous number of traffic lights Ken and now Boris have put in - if they want to reduce emmisions get rid of 50% of these!!! - and 32-35 on the motorway

I've only had the Cav a couple of weeks, it was traded for my Corsa b Sri, but the minute I had the Cav and posted pics up on my local forum www.Ni-Vaux.co.uk I had a guy off the omega. So I haven't really got used to the fuel consumption yet although I have just done 400mile to £52 of diesel and still a bit left in the tank!

Back when I first joined this site I had a 3.0 v6 manual cd estate, so I kinda know what to expect mpg wise

If I was averaging high 20's then I reckon I'd be happy enough. The road that I drive to work is more or less a straight road and its a 25mile round trip, so I think that should be do-able based on what you guys are saying  :y
