Unless you drive hundreds of miles a week then its fine. 30mpg should be doable.

Be prepared to spend a bit on parts when you first get one though, things like bushes, and other bits and pieces, but once you've sorted that its a cheap car to own.

It would come as a bit of a shock if you are used to a diesel clio or something like that but otherwise dont worry about it.
