Most certainly. It is designed to be a city car. The new ones have 6 speed transmissions.
I am thinking of installing a lower grill block. I'll have to get off my butt and get it done.
Regarding country roads, I try and use them as much as possible. There is one 6 mile section I use often, and can get about 70 mpg UK, from one end to the other. I love that road. Short sharp climbs then long downgrades where DFCO comes to the fore. Needlessly to say, I only ever drive it in one direction!
