    1.2 16v Poor Economy 30mpg on petrol or LPG

    Just a little update for you if you are interested. I have had the cat and both pre and post lambda sensors changed (genuine 2nd hand units) and done about 300miles. Early indications shown that the car is doing 45MPG now on petrol. I have not run it on LPG yet as I have discovered a number...

    1.2 16v Poor Economy 30mpg on petrol or LPG
