Stilo 1.9 JTD realistic mpg?

[B19GRR]

Hi,

I've seen what looks like a decent example of this thrill-fest motor near me for not much money, most official figures seem to suggest 52-ish for the combined figure with up to 65 for extra urban, so I'm just wondering how close these are matched in reality. My driving is mainly A roads with occasional town, so should be able to maintain a fairly steady 40-50mph most of the time.

Oh, yes I do prefer the look of the 147 but that seems to be way more on the insurance front and up one tax bracket which seems weird.

Cheers,
Rob

We've got a Stilo JTD (115) which the other half drives, majority of the driving is short journeys, and it averages 45-50 mpg (if the computer is to be believed)
