I think if you want 35mpg round town the diesels are your only option. My 2.1 V6 petrol does just 20mpg round town, and around 35mpg on a motorway run and I think the other V6's are about the same. I think next time I'll look for a Sovereign spec 3.0 petrol - insurance, road tax and MPG aren't much different to the 2.1.
Personally I prefer the non-sport specs so if you go for the more traditional SE trim you get leather, wood, and quite a lot of kit. Mine rides well on standard 17" wheels, not sure about the bigger wheels and lower profile tyres.
Whatever you go for get the best history and condition you can. Mines an 05, 70k miles with FSH and I've not had any issues in the 9 months I've had it.
Good luck,
Ian
