Contradictory requirement

Could you please let me know what you think are the top three automatic 4x4s based on the lowest petrol or diesel consumption.

Success: The new F25 X3 2.0d 8-speed auto is 147g/km CO2. The MINI Countryman 1.6 diesel ALL4 manual is 129g/km. No figures yet for the auto or the new 2.0 litre SD auto. The BMW X1 2.0D SE Xdrive auto is 155g/km. The Toyota RAV-4 2.0 Valvematic Multidrive S is 177g/km. (Unfortunately readers are telling me of an 8 month wait for an F25 X3.)

Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.

Real MPG enables you to register the fuel economy you are actually getting against your make and model of car, its engine and type of transmission.

Every time you enter an average consumption figure against your car, the overall average automatically adjusts to reflect it.
