I am astonished. 76mpg from a diesel car, possible from software revisions and a feable study of aerodynamics. My guess is 45 or 41 mpg from the diesel car, unless it's a gocart.

Check this article, the current Ibiza Ecomotive won the eco tour with an astonishing 3.8L/100km or 62 MPUSG or 74 MPUKG http://www.autobloggreen.com/2008/09/26/the-seat-ibiza-ecomotive-wins-the-eco-tour-2008 These are actual figures and not Manufacturer claims (even though the manufacturer really does claim that combined consumption is 3.8L/100km)

They look lower spec because big alloys and bodykits spoil aerodynamics, and they lack heavy luxury equipment to keep weight down.

All true. Large alloys also add weight. My guess though is 14" alloys are lighter than steel wheels. Wondering why steel with mag covers used on this model. Maybe I'm wrong?
