I would have one again, they are surprisingly big, if a little old fashioned, but the economy is not great just because you throw that out the window as they are good fun to drive!

Why do people assume they need a big motorway car when virtually everything sold in the pat 20 odd years will be quite capable of cruising the motorways all day everyday.

Capable yes. Comfortable enough to mean you get out 300 miles later as fresh as you set off, no.

Having had a 1.1 Pug 206 as a courtesy car, I can see why. Going up a 1 in 6 hill I thought we'd have to get out and push. You need to rag the nuts off the 1.1 just to get it to go anywhere.

Here are the stats for that model:

41mpg and 0-60 in 9.2. I'd say that was a pretty good balance, depends whether 41mpg is good enough for you I guess.
