Depends how and where you drive it.

I have a 1.6 n/a and its good for 25mpg driving around hilly Cornwall, but get it on the straight and it will do 35mpg at 55mph. Its a fully loaded westy with 205 x 10 x 14 tires. The engine is plenty big enough just keep in mind its a 1.6 diesel not a 2.1 petrel.

Good luck with it
