I drive a 1.6 VW Golf (Hatchback).
I spend £60 ($118) a week on petrol.
...although I must admit my work commute is > 100 miles a day.

Price of petro over in your neck of the woods is what...about $4.00 ish US? You should get a VW deisel. The old ones you could go about 700 miles to a tank. Just don't get a scooter Muck...not you...stay with us in the man club...

MPG has little to do with it. For example, this gets much better mileage and is at least 173x cooler.

I've got a company car at the moment, my car is Peugeot 306 1.9TD.
Diesels aren't much cheaper to run than petrols though, unless you run them on vegtable oil...annnnnnnyway.
