Need a new commuter car ASAP, made the big mistake of buying a renault and its complete shit the bed on me, wont start, tried everything but to no avail. Nearest renault garage is 140 miles round trip, so cant exactly tow the car there.
Found a 1.7D corsa 5 door locally, would do to commute in. Any ideas on MPG? Clio was getting 60+, not expecting that again
