DESPERATE - THINKING OF LEAVING THE VOLVO !!! 200

The blue car 244 1980, drives really nice.

It is suppose to be my main car, but today I drove about 300Km on a whole tank of gas!!! Is this normal? Are you all rich?

The car seems to run great - but if this gas consumption is "normal" I will have to make a difficult decision and put this car aside.

I still own a vw Jetta, but due to insurance and registration fees - I had to decide on one car. I chose the Volvo, with the advice of nice people from this site - they only forgot to tell me that I would go bankrupt!!!

Please, nice people, tell me that this is not normal mileage for this car.

Please tell me what kind of mileage I can expect, and what is wrong here
(all of these are fixed: air filter, timing and timing belt, no gas leaks, new plugs, new breaker points, no extra weight, no break malfunctions).

Nice people, I have spent dozens and probably hundred of hour fixing this car - now it can mean goodby!!!

Holding my breath untill any of you answer.

Gadi
