Everything is in tune, but it is a heavier Variant (=wagon) with 02M auto gearbox and 1.6 8-valve gas engine. Lots of cold starts, studded winter tires and 13mile commute net ~25MPG. On highway, MPG are generally better but not great. Accelleration is anything but stellar...103 hp. So you end up driving a lot with WOT.
