i have an astra 1.4 but its top spec, so weighs 8 tons and MPG is crap (75 miles to 10 quid)
i did have a 1.6 16v astra before which was very good on fuel (120 miles to 10 quid) but had more expensive tax and insurance
1.5 derv corsa is cheap tax, good mpg and quite solid engines plus the 5 doors can be bought cheap. think ill have a shop about
or a 1.2 16v corsa c as i like these, but cost a lot more
