Thats whats happens when they put a small engine in a large heavy car though.

has what 140 bhp and prob about 180 fl lbs trq the 1.8. Thats a hell of a barge to drag around with so little power.

i found that with the vectra b, had 1.8, 2x 2.0 and then finally a 2.5 v6 gsi, and the gsi was easily the best on fuel

Fast...

I havent done an exact test yet... but

If I drive for miles and miles at 80 mph in the 1.2 Fiat 500 Sport, and do the same in the VXR I get about 10 mpg difference between the two

So, either way very close at motorway speeds take your pick..
