DISCLAIMER: These blokes are likely throwing around the UK mpg figures, so beware!
Just joking with ya'll. I envy the access the Europeans have to good mpg vehicles, especially hot hatches with a diesel. I remember watching a Top Gear where they went something like 700 miles on one tank of fuel. Ol Clarkson tried to run out of fuel early by using the heated seats, air con, and driving like a blithering idiot, yet he still managed to get to his destination with fuel to spare. And he was in a Jaguar! Not exactly an econobox!
IIRC, a UK gallon is roughly equal to 5 US quarts?
