Our 9000 is used for shopping runs, school runs (7 miles each way - soon to be a thing of the past come September) and other, more 'expressive' forms of driving the last four years it has returned 22.9, 21.8, 23.8 and 22.1('03 predicted) mpg. > Since > it is driven between 55 and 70 mph I think it would be difficult to beat > this figure, That's how the Micra is used for its annual ~13,500 miles returning 49.0, 49.0, 51.1 and 51.9('03 predicted) mpg. > the air con is only used occasionally.
