    It's the 1.8TFSI, I believe the 2 litre unit is about the same or even slightly better.

    Notmyrealname - I've never seen 70 mpg from a diesel ford and I drive quite a lot of them as that's what they give me to drive in work if I go anywhere. 50 - 60 mpg is more like it.

    I'm after a diesel that can beat the 55mpg we got from our peugeot 106.
    I don't think a Mondeo is on the list somehow! Even if one poster believes he can "thrape it" and still get 70mpg.
