We have a T3 automatic and I was a little worried about the power before we bought it, as I had only driven the Diesel engined demonstrator.
It has proved to be ok; the power is more than enough for normal day to day driving, and the only time that the relatively low power is obvious is under hard acceleration, when it gets a little rough and runs out of steam quickly.
We have had the car 15 months and were averaging just less than 900 miles per month before lockdown, doing a mixture of short local journeys with a couple of weekly 70 mile trips thrown in. Over that mileage, it has given a reasonably steady 39 mpg. Longer, 100 mile plus, journeys see it get well into the mid 40’s.
We are generally very happy with it.
