I have just done my first fill up on a N reg 1.6 Honda Civic and it shows a
return of 27.5 MPG. This seemed a little low to me.


Which Honda Civic ? They make many different models. I had a N reg Honda
Civic ESI - 120 BHP and quite fast but still 35 or more MPG - more on a
long run. Many less/more powerful Honda Civics available .....

Then there's the Honda Civic Type R - 200 BHP. 27.5 MPG would be good for
that machine :-)

Dunno why they're all called Honda Civics.
