Best small car for fuel economy?
I drive a lot for work, often on motorways, clocking up 20,000 miles a year. I currently drive a petrol Honda Jazz, but want something similar with improved fuel efficiency. What do you suggest with a budget of £9000?

KIA Rio 1.1CRDI. But top of our recent Real MPG survey was a Vauxhall Corsa 1.3CRDI.
Real MPG enables you to register the fuel economy you are actually getting against your make and model of car, its engine and type of transmission.
Every time you enter an average consumption figure against your car, the overall average automatically adjusts to reflect it.

I was reading the engine specification for the new Audi A4 2.0 petrol auto. It just seems incredible. 53mpg. 0-62 in 7.3 secs. 190ps and yet only £30 per year in VED. What engineering wizardry have they...

Solid and decently equipped. Reasonable handling and some frugal engines.
