Argh! The plan to run a GT as an everyday car is not going so well. Fuel economy is killing me. I am getting between 21 - 25 mpg on my daily commute, which is about 15 miles in stop start heavy traffic. Car is running fine, no issues, and yes on long gentle runs I can get mid 30s. But driving like miss daisy the entire time has made me think. The insurance is up soon too.. I think my best bet is to de mod the car, sell the bits sep, get a years ticket on it, and sell it as a std car, with just over 100k on it, recent all new brakes, new exhaust and clutch plus service history should at least see me get £750 back for it. Question is what to replace it with, ideally I want a Toyota or at very least a Jap car, but not a lot floats me boat. Tried A puma, loved driving it, but too small. Ideas guys? I wanted a gen 6 to replace my 4, but realise now that my heart rulled my head, I cannot ignore the money I am sticking into the tank! I want some fun behind the wheel and driving everywhere for max mpg to eek out every litre is not it. I want 3drs ideally, decent size boot, and mpg of at least 30mpg in urban conditions, with a bit of driver fun thrown in.
