I'm still in my quest for a ZS, and i've spotted quite a few which appeal to me, many of them being the 180. I would obviously prefer the 180 but im just not so sure about the running costs of it. For my age (23) i know that the insurance will be a killer and a quick confused.com quote read 1200 pounds. Tax is another thing.

But fuel costs... what kinda figures do you guys get. I'm not so good with miles per gallon etc but in my 1.7 ford puma i can put 40 pounds worth of fuel in and get about 270 miles out of it before the red light comes on.

I know i shouldn't even be considering the fuel costs if im thinking of a 180 as they're gona be higher than normal, but im just seeing if i can get away with it.

Cheers
