They're awful for economy, but as Curt quite rightly says, if you are watching MPG's you have the wrong car
How do you get such bad mpg from a 1.8? I never got below 400 miles to a tank in my previous 1.8! Worked out about 35mpg average.
Gonna top this one up tomorrow and see what its doing...will report back lol.
He drives like a lady garden lol
Ive had more than 40mpg out of both my 6 and 1.8 on a regular basis on motorway trips but start giving it some beans and it rapidly drops!
Yeah I'll second this, I remember the ride from the hotel to Xscape at the xmas meet, never seen an Insignia shift like that
