So my engines just been sorted as it needed
-cambelt kit,
-few new sensors,
-new rocker cover gasket,
-new EGR,
-and a good service
the car ran well despite these problems and was doing around 30-35mpg with the occasional thrash.
Now these problems are all fixed and the car is running just as fast and powerful, maybe abit smoother but only avreging 20-25mpg confused.
was just wondering what you could get out of yours driving reletivly sensible with the odd thrash?

Or the thrash ALL the time (it just sounded too good to back off) i'd never see under 30mpg's. Although my Corsa does weigh 840kg so it does help not having to carry a lot of weight around.
