Firstly - Welcome to the forum.

There a sticky on here about what to look for - they are great value just now.

You should get 20-22mpg as a minimum with maybe 28-30mpg on a run.

Great cars with a great soundtrack where basic mods - induction and decat - will get you to 190 ish and with a remap pushing 200 ish. Just make sure that the car is running well initiallly (vis motors especially). Any more than that and your talking serious money. The car's about how it feels and sounds - not just the numbers.

Get some quotes though - even at 21- unless your connected in some way to an insurance company or qualify for some major discount - don't expect much change out of ?1500.
