    Yeah, Dad had a VZ Berlina - he used to get some great economy on the freeway - he now has a VE Calais with the 195kW engine - they've just driven up to Surfers yesterday - his average economy was in the 7's he reckons according to the trip computer!!!

    Oh well, if you could only drive on freeways all the time...
    I'd be curious to find out about some economy figures for that brilliant V6 in Sydney normal driving conditions.

    I can tell you now - its crap Click here to enlarge

    But the Ecotec and Alloytec are still pretty frugal for what they are. The old Buick 3.8 was actually famous for it. Click here to enlarge

    Personally I couldn’t live with a diesel and over here the governments Road User Tax that is charged as part of registration makes driving a diesel pointless over petrol.

    Do you guys get taxed extra for driving a diesel?
