My RX8 is at 70, given its thirst for oil and petrol i thought it would have scored higher.

Should add I don't think a high CO2 rating means it is most polluting. That would be some smokey diesel or a hippy campervan.

With a trifling 396g/km.

Which is beaten. So Mine must be at least 101+ on a scale of 1 - 100.

Well the Defender Diesel also scores the full 100, and my Series 3 make Defenders look like a Pius.

I dont get this WhatGreenCar rating - i've got the UK's lowest conventionally fuelled car (smart cdi with dpf 88g/km) which is built in the worlds most eco car factory, and yet a Fiat 500 1.3 diesel is meant to be greener.
