2nd vehicle Rover 75,MG ZTT

Trying to reduce our fuel bill TD5 29mpg max (A roads) does anyone have experience of Rover 75/MG ZTT either V6 or diesel?
Only want to spend £1500

why not spend the £1500 on fuel in the disco?

buy another car then you have another lot of tax/mot/insurance costs/running costs

if you're going to run 2 cars one of em has got to be cheap as chips to run and insure/tax etc or its pointless ?

Why a ztt why not a 106 or punto or similar? I agree with the others, saving money means cheap as chips required....not a V6.

How long would 1500 of fuel last? That' about 14 full tanks I expect. Are you selling the Landrover?

Rover ztt will not save you money. Although the diesel 75 has a BMW lump in it

2nd car for when I cant fix the Disco over the weekend or need to fetch a fuel filter sensor that could not be removed but then started leaking.
Sticking with 'Rovers' I guess 200 series are bottom prices now.
Anyone have any experience/pitfalls to avoid when buying?

Old diesel car Audi 80 tdi/pug tdi and run it on veggie oil/diesel mix(do a search)

i had a mgzt cdti, and they only do 30 mpg around town 40 ish on a run. . the v6 25 mpg.

Have a 80tdi till im back on my feet money wise.

working it out gallons put in to miles done... I get 50mpg combined 30mpg at 127mph steady and 59mpg at constant 60mph.

using 50/50 mix of veggie/diesel and a bit of 2stroke to lube the pump. every 40litres I put in I save 20quid(yes **** you Osbourne)

This sort of thing.

ive done 11k miles in mine since oct last year and touch wood its been awsome as Audi's made then were.
also easy to work on.

I have an astra 1.7cdti chav box that does 600 miles to a tank of foooool and costs around £90 a year to tax. This does the daily work grind for the ballast and long distance drives. The landy gets used for load lugging, weekends, work, ofroading/greenlaning and the annual pilgrimage to the isle of widget.
