Economy of a 480.

I drove this morning to work, 55Miles of A Road, and decided to see what I could achieve economy wise, this didn't mean deliberately driving slower, it just meant not trying to race every chav that dare challenge Glen!



I managed a fairly astounding 42.8MPG! How many turbos, however old, with 127000+ miles manage 35mpg?

Impressed - indeed, sadly me and Glen will be parting company shortly, to allow me to focus on getting Vince back to his former glory. I'm looking for a cheap derv to reduce my fuel bills, although is that really possible when the 480 proves its economical as well as great fun!

Glen Current Mileage: 127102
