pretty much standard 1.6.
i worked out that over 230 miles i averaged 34 mpg. (mixed driving)
that sounds ok but not amazing... what's normal??
lots of faster cars would have similar running costs (not including insurance costs obviously)...
what do you reckon??

1 litre = 0.212 gallons
so 46 litre corsa tank is roughly 9.75 gallons
divide the number of miles you get out of a tank by 9.75 for a rough average mpg.

The formula is in the question. Miles per gallon, as in miles/gallons of fuel used.
