My Ibiza would fetch £4500 - same engine as yours Kyle.

My Ibiza averages 45MPG and that pretty much all around town with a heavy foot. Can get 60+ on the motorway. 350 miles to £46 (A tank these days).

Performance - well, outdoes a fair few things, 148bhp on the rollers, 240 lb/ft torque

Insurance, 19 years old, 1 years NCB, 1 at fault accident, Mum and Godmum on policy, IAM driver, Fully Comp - £1k

I've had it remapped and since getting this done i've been able to get MPG in the low 60s.

Get about 550miles to a tank which currently costs £51.

Corsa used to get 400 miles from £40, back when the fuel prices were in the 80s!!

Reedy, thing with the Golfs and the A3s is becuase of their size, their slower than the Ibiza/Polo/Fabia and also do much less MPG. My dad struggles to get above 50mpg in his A3 Sportbback.
