    Right then,

    Seen as you lot know everything thought I would ask a bit of advice.

    I am after a change of car.

    Over 55mpg
    Cheap tax
    Cheap Insurance
    Hatchback
    4 seats

    What should I get up to 15k spend.

    Fire away.

    They base it on perfect conditions i.e perfect weather/road.

    Best would be 45/50 mpg I guess.

    Manufacturers' mpg claims are the biggest set of lies since the bible was cobbled together.
