Swift not swallow

My new Suzuki Swift 1.5 Automatic achieves 50mpg on a long run and 45mpg around town. This is my first car that beats the manufacturer figures for fuel economy. I am not a slow driver, so wish to praise Suzuki on producing such a brilliant little car.

That's excellent. Fine handling car, too. We have exactly the same engine and autobox in our Toyota Vios in Thailand, now nearly 6 years old, and that still does 45mpg.
