Used my 1.2 everyday mainly short trips i.e. max 20 miles per day in and around town. Gave me anything from 41 - 45 mpg and was fine.
I may have done 15-20K a year in my 1.2 when I had it.... Never serviced it for 2 years either lol, it only needed ONE sparkplug in all that time lol
currently doing 65 miles a day in the XE saloon.
That doesnt include the fortnightly trips to Watord (271 miles round trip)
