Government figures for a 2001 classic Mini from:
Select a search : Directgov - Car fuel data, CO2 and vehicle tax tools
2001 Mini Cooper 1275cc (Twin port injection)
4 speed manual
Meets EU2 emissions standards
Urban 33.4 mpg
Extra Urban 51.8 mpg
Combined 43.0 mpg
CO2: 164g/ km
CO: 0.995g/ km
HC+NOx: 0.225g/ km
It also puts out...
63 hp at 5500 rpm
70 lb ft at 3000 rpm
Pretty poor FE considering its weight (around 700kg) and small frontal area, though admittedly the Cd and gearing are probably dire.
