18 MPG!!!
I'll sell you my diesel Skoda Fabia. I get 55mpg in stop start urban driving and can easily get 65 - 68 mpg at 70 mph on the motorway.
Next to my bike, it is one of the most efficient forms of transport there is. I can also get my Merc in the back without fully folding it and without putting the rear seats down. If I put the rear seats down it will take two mountain bikes inside - one on top of the other. I put a bit of spare stair carpet between them to stop scuffing.
