Sounds like you want to drive a 'toy' to work and not a daily.
I would go with a falcon on gas with the distances you travel. The falcon auto or man will be fine with hills.

Personal experience: I got a KCII TX3 laser for my daily. Its not xr6 or turbo fast but its good enough to get to uni. Does under 10L per 100km... I think its about 8.something but my od is out so not exact... lil 1.6 injected 5speed man. She does a trip from Bendigo to Albury every two weeks and doesnt faze her at all.

yeh its a big toss up... ill wait till the charade dies then ill buy somthing lol..

nice car. how about the use time ??

I have an LS Focus (manual), I love it pleanty of space, more grunt than my old ED falcon (Auto) & heaps better on fuel) even the older 2L LR focus is good bang for buck. if you want something cheaper.

Running min 95 ron i get about 7.3 around town & about 6.3 (sometimes 5.7/8)on the highway. if you get an auto they use heaps more fuel.

So you want a cheap daily, that will still eat taxi's?

The new Nissan Micra's, are the boy racers weapon of choice.
A 1992-5 Suzuki Swift is my pick, if your after something cheap.

You can import a Nissan wagon from Japan? for about 15k landed.
8 seater with Two TVs with local station reception.
The 350z engine could be thirsty with the extra weight.
