How can you give it loads and it doesn't go below 32mpg? If I give my golf a boot full it does 9mpg

its widely regarded as the best small warm hatch of its time by pretty much every motoring press etc, sold loads of them and they are very popular. I can understand them not being everyones cup of tea. However i dont understand how it is boring to drive? Did yours not see a corner??
