fuel economy and emissions

Hi, could you tell me if a 898cc Dacia Stepway is suitable for LPG conversion? I already have my Duster converted, which is great.

How much will it cost to run a 1.1-litre car?

How economical is a Golf 1.9 diesel? What miles to the gallon does it give? I'm looking at a 2005 diesel. Should I stick with a 1.4 petrol car?

Thanks,

Michael Conlon

What is the economy like on the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Edition C? Manual vs. automatic?

What economy will I get from a 2011 Volkswagen Jetta deseil?

Should my wife trade in her 2008 Volkswagen Passat 1.4 TSI petrol for a more economical diesel car? My wife loves her Highline Passat, with 130,000km on the clock, but is wondering should she get something newer with similar spec (she's fond of the heated leather seats!). She uses it for work all around the county and also school runs etc for two young kids. What do you recommend?

Thanks

What would be the difference in fuel consumption between a Mercedes-Benz ML 280 CDI and a Mitsubishi Pajero, all things been equal?

Thanks

Hi there,

What would be a typical mpg from a 2009 Polo 1.4 TDI if you're a steady and careful driver? What do you think about the 1.2 TDI engines? Are they too small to get good mpg? All the websites that deal with cars' mpg show 1.6 as being the most economical. Is this changing at all?

Hi, I've read your piece about petrol vs diesel. Trouble is, I want a car that does better mpg. I have a petrol Polo 2009 1.2 (80,000km) that does about 45 to the gallon. I can trade this in with about €8-9K but it must have good mpg - 60+. We don't do that many miles a year but we'd head off to England and back and be forever filling up. What do you recommend looking at?

How does fuel consumption of the 2006 Skoda Octavia RS petrol compare to that of a 2001 Volkswagen Golf GTI?
