It really depends on how far you drive, but if you're lucky you should get about 50 or 60 miles between breakdowns.

See how the economy goes up once you've removed the only good thing about the car, the 4-wheel-drive system, then, if it's still not cheap enough to run, why not remove the ****ing engine too?

It ruins them! Increase in mpg is minimal. Don't do it!

I gotta agree with the majority of these posts... if you gonna change it to 2wd buy summat else that has better fuel economy... 1L micras are great on fuel
