Smile Hi from Dorset UK, 1.4 Diesel Seat Ibiza Ecomotive

I am new to this site. found it whilst looking for ways to get more mpg from my 2009 1.4 Diesel Seat Ibiza Ecomotive. It is 3 cylinder turbo. It does between 60 and 85 mpg. Thats European 8 pint gallons. I suppose most of the gallons talked about on this site are 6 pint gallons.

Going back to the car: It is good but not wonderful, the turbo lag and the reletivly rough ride can make even the driver feel a bit travel sick. The drivers seat is too narrow for big people me and I still have not worked out the best cushion arrangement. And the mpg is not much better than a normal small diesel - but it is very low emmissions so I dont have to pay any road tax.

I would love to hear from anyone - Simbo
