What is everyone's average mpg?

[IdahoBob]

2002 XC70 (157K miles) gets 25-26 on the road, with the cruise set at 75 mph. I wish we could get non-turbo in the US.

2002 S80 2.9L (no turbo) (204K miles) gets 29.4-29.7 mpg, tank after tank, highway, 75 mph. This engine is bulletproof and the car is quick. Stay way from the turbo if looking for a used one; it just hog gas and you don't need it to be quick if you have the straight 6.

The 1985 245 (threw a rod at almost 400K miles) got 25 mpg, uphill, downhill, in reverse.

The 1967 122S wagon got 36 on the highway, if you kept the carbs tuned and balanced.

It depenends on how you drive it, yada, yada yada.

Anywhere from 17mpg in all city driving with lots of stoplights, idling, quick acceleration, AC on full blast, etc
To 34mpg running it up and down the west coast in the winter with the AC off. I pulled off a few 500 mile tanks. 87 octane helps if you can get away with it.

Just calculated mine the yesterday on fill-up.

1995 850 Wagon with 223K miles

Got 17.89mpg. Kind of bummed about the number, but realizing that this is a fixer-upper and is going to need a tune-up something fierce this spring. Also going to need to do the Seafoam treatment this weekend, followed by an oil change (very slight, very slow oil leak just noticed yesterday).

1992 960 sedan, LPG powered.

15.71 l/100 km = 14.97 US mpg = 17.98 UK mpg.

Thirsty, but LPG is only half the price of petrol, so no worries...

Airco on all the time, nice and warm here in Adelaide, South Australia.
