If you have the money, a somewhat costly mod you can do is a Honda Vtec engine swap, there is a company that sells kits allowing you to put a Honda Vtec engine in your car, designed for racing but the Vtec-E should be an easy fit with a kit like that, giving 52+mpg with a 2,000 pound Honda Civic, seems like a 1,200 pound Mini would get much better mileage.
