My last car was the 118d eco-warrior which suppose to average 68mpg but I was only ever averaging 44-55mpg. I hardly do any motorway driving and my journeys mostly consist of short trips doing town driving with small parts of dual carriageways so I didn't see the worth for me to pay extra to buy a diesel car again.
I personally like the refinement of petrol engines and the extra rev range but I do like the low end torque of the diesels, very useful nipping in and out of town.
