CAR/YEAR: 1981 245 SU carb B21A
MILEAGE: 317000 km
TRANS: Manual 4 speed with O/D (M46)
RANGE: approx 400km/250 miles on full tank
Per Litre: 8km
MPG: 19 miles per gallon
FUEL TYPE: 87 octane

I get the worst mileage imaginable on this car :(
This is a 15 mile commute at 55 mph.
It has the chrome/steel roof rack and 3.91 gears.
It will run 16 hours a day at 80mph though :)

Perhaps I need to lean the mixture...
