I got a 1.6TDCi 2 months ago (1 yr old) and it is fab. On a good run down the Motorway it averages 65+mpg. In real traffic jams, snail commuter travelling still almost 50mpg.

Loads of rear leg room for my Teenagers (adults happily carried). We specifically asked for the deep boot (space saver tyre but sooo much bigger boot).

Cheap to insure. I Love it.
