The article comparing diesel and petrol Fabias was very interesting but was probably not how most people drive most of the time. I am trying to choose between two Octavias: the 1.2 TSI petrol (currently...
I have usually used only BP Ultimate diesel in my Land Cruiser, but I have recently tried the Shell V-Power diesel. I am not totally sure but I appear to be getting a couple of miles per gallon extra with...

I was surprised by the fuel consumption claim of 40mpg combined for the new Mercedes-Benz CLS 350 petrol model. I think the old model 320CDI was 36mpg combined (37.2mpg on 245 rear tyres). I have a 5-year-old...
I have heard a lot of complaints from friends and acquaintances who own FIAT 500 TwinAir cars. The complaint is over fuel consumption. Most people seem to get about 30mpg. I went with my daughter to the...
