Get yourself an amazon. They don't come simpler than that. 32mpg on a run, no tax, buggerall insurance, buggerall depreciation, buggerall maintenance, keeps up with modern traffic, you can drive them anywere and these cars actualy do last forever.

MPG of a V70 AWD on holiday
Just did 2000 miles up to & around Scotland with a big roofbox, 3 bikes on the back and 4 adults/2 kids. On the motorway at 75-ish it did 25mpg, throw in a fair bit of Scottish/Yorkshire A/B roads and the whole trip was 24mpg. Not bad for a fully loaded 2.5 turbo, and I wasn't stingy with the welly either.
Cheers Mike
