Miles per tank

DSB3008 if you are interested in fuel consumption (as you seem to be) then why did you buy a tall powerful petrol car with an automatic gearbox in the first place?

My manual 308 hatchback 1.6 BlueHDI DIESEL regularly averages 69mpg+ and does 700+ miles per tank of fuel:D Also, it can do 0-60 in less than 10 secs, so what's not to like?

It emits only 84mg/km of CO2 (major greenhouse gas) and no more Nitrous oxide gases than most modern petrol cars with 120bhp engines

So why do we all tow the line in thinking we need an SUV & Diesels must be bad?
+How many miles do you intend doing per year?
