Renault Megane 4295 x 1808 x 1471 mm
Audi A3 4328 x 1765 x 1421 mm

Seem about the same to me...

I find that usually when the shop is much bigger than your house.  Like when 
my mum bought this sofa set from a shop (which is obviously vastly larger 
than her living room, and probably our whole road), when she got it home it 
looked like twice the size as the one in the shop!

Mine depends how fast I drive, for one whole tank I went on uber-economy 
mode and got 55 mpg, most of the time I get around 48-52.

I also found out that turning the air-con off reduced the fuel consumption 
by about 3 mpg during normal driving, I wouldn't have expected quite that 
much, but there you go.
