Thinking Of Changing Car?

[SR180BOB]

Hi all I'm thinking of changing my car because of the really poor mpg, at best I'm getting low 30's, I've cleaned egr, reset ecu even been putting bp ultimate in and yet it won't go up. How much better is the mpg on the normal 2.0d sr maybe I could change to that, I don't thrash it, I don't know what else to do,

Any help would be appreciated thank you

But how much fuel can be purchased with the extra cash you have to fork out to change?

Unless you are doing very high mileage changing a car just to improve the mpg figure is unlikely to be economically prudent.

To start with your car is possibly worth less than you think and if you are looking to do a part exchange with a dealer then you will be looking at a couple of grand to make it worthwhile. Then work out, using real world mpg figures, how much fuel you will save over say a year.
