The reason I ask this, is because now with oil closing in at a $100/barrel, it's merely a matter of time that gas prices in India are going to sky rocket.
I initially had my eye on the 1.6, but am now contemplating the 1.1SLX and the 1.6. Not to mention a price difference of 45K between the two.

Some FE figures for the two would give me a fair idea. Besides, I drive very comfortably in the city. On the highways, I'd like to do atleast between 120-140 without pushing the engine too much.
Are these speeds easily reachable in the 1.1s, without makin' the poor engine cry?
