Is my economy good? And when should I change my oil?
I drive daily to work six miles and six return, as well as to shops at the weekend. My Polo 1.4 TDI consistently returns 42/44 mpg. Is this good, bad or average? The car is fully serviced. Also, how important and how often is it to change oil?

Average. Chage the oil at least every year.
