I find that they are not too bad... I reckon about 25-27 mpg is about right for a standard 1.3 engined SJ
Mine seems to do 27-30 now with the 1600 engine, depending on what kind of driving you are doing.
Around town it uses more due to the bigger engine, but on long distance it uses less because you don't have to rag it to go fast :)
