FIAT SEICENTO

[Jonnycoupe]

I'd happily pay £40/week to be able to drive something that is large and comfortable for the kind of distances you must be talking about to save £40 in fuel costs a week.

Sounds terrible.

Why dont you then?

Dont forget the £10 per week cooling system fund for the 1st year aswell.

Since when is a cooling system £520? And since when do I drive round in an eco box?

OP, you're running a 1.8 Focus, your motoring shouldn't be expensive to start with.

Once you factor in the purchase cost, 2nd insurance, 2nd tax, 2nd maintenance bill exactly how much will you be "saving" to run a second car?

What was the Honda?

Accord coupe 2.2 auto. Which probably counts as an ecobox for a lot of you here. I'm tight though, I hate filling the damn thing up.

2nd car to save wear and tear on a focus 1.8.... priceless!

 

[SB118]

A 1.8 Focus he only bought in the last 2 months in fact, wonder if he's getting crabby fuel economy due to an induction kit?

He has a 1.8 Ford Focus and is getting 22mpg apparently. Either you're doing town mileage, you drive everywhere bouncing off the limiter or your car is ****ed.

When was it last serviced? I would also like to express lol's at buying a Seicento (quite possibly one of THE worst cars ever made), to save on running costs of a 1.8 Focus

22mpg seems to be what someone else is getting. I'm still unsure why it was considered relevant...

 

[SB118]

It wasn't the OP who posted about the 22mpg.
