depends on the car, if itsa modern diesel compaed to a SS600 or 1000cc the car will be more ecconomical most of the time in most driving conditions.

It is unlikley to beat a 125 in the city though.

I have a 6r a 307 Hdi and a mondeo 1,8TD. Out of them the Oug is best on fuel and the bike worst. BUT that is cos i ride the bike at high revs and low gears most of the time. If i was to sit at 70 on the motorway i would probably do a comparible MPG to the pug.
