whats the big deal about petrol consumtion!

if you drive like your granny going to the shops, you will have good consumtion.

if you drive like a hoon it will be bad!

why would you buy a car like the FTO and not drive with some spirit

I have been driving a bit crazy lately and I get about 550-600km per tank (60L)...in the end of the day its a light 2L engne if u drive slow you'll get very good consumption..if thats what u want - buy an ECHO :P

This man is a genious.


Your fuel consumption is dictated primarily by the way YOU drive.

obviously fuel consumption is dictated a lot by the way you drive, but im talking about driving normally.. some cars drink and some dont

and if i wanted to buy an echo (which i don't) then i would buy one.. so dont make stupid statements


but thankyou to all the people who provided constructive info :)
