Ive been keeping a close eye on my fuel consumption over the last month of so, and Ive been typically seeing mid-high 20s mpg, although thats with a bit of showing off and town driving.

As far as the road tax thing is concerned, its now £245 a year for tax (as of April 2010) and by April 2011 it could be £425 as the MG ZS 180 is just above the 225g/km CO2 limit for band K (it's rated at 227g/km ie band L), assuming that the government dont extend the 2001-2006 manufacture year band K cap (lets face it, thats looking doubtful).
Aye, i get round about 26mpg for day to day driving, 30mpg is the best i have got so far though that was done with slightly sticking rear brakes so sure i can beat that
