At the pump - most likely. When you work out the cost per mile he'll still be laughing.
I know i compared what it cost to run the ZS against a 2.0L TDCI Focus - ZS was twice what the Focus was to run per mile (fuel only).

It does work out for her. But Laura gets a very generous 0.65p per mile from NHS for her visits & covering McMillan nurse duties, so not too bad.
Needs cambelt doing with all the bits (water pump etc), but that was reflected in the price.
