First generation Cooper S real world fuel consumption
Discussion
22 to 25mpg if you drive as intended.
This and difference in road fund license with a bit of man maths, made me go for the r56 2007 stop/start. We averaged 34.6mpg over six years of spirited driving , and around 45mpg on my commute run, if you drove like a nanny (my golf diesel gives 54-6mpg on this run).
Also need to look at the servicing costs and systemic faults on this first gen model

27 in local traffic, 29/30 with local commute total 12 miles, 34 urban rural, anywhere between on motorway, but over 80 it drops from higher to lower affecting the average significantly! The car will get better if you make the right changes. It could probably be better, I'm an economical driver considering I don't drive that slow, but certain it could return more.
