Big snip

On the other discussion here about mpg, this is a fixation of mine. I
don't believe the mantra that petrol is better for low mileage's.
Petrol auto Omega 40 mpg motorway, 7-9mpg taking elderly ladies shopping
as always "full choke".
Diesel auto Disco or Grand Cherokee 26mpg motorway 22mpg shopping.
Diesel Manual Octavia 70mpg motorway 35mpg shopping

All values approx but measured over several fill-ups. Everything depends
on the style and requirements of driving.

That's just the driving side though? Istr the "mantra " also
factors in more expensive diesel maintenance & repair? costs over
the period...
