Been having a hard time deciding which fun car to drive, until now... Both have 16 gallon tanks, I think I almost got 160 miles on the mustang before I hit the fuel light. 260 miles on the 914 still have 3/8s a tank left on the gauge. Obviously driving both like an idiot. I think the gt350 might be taking a little garage nap for a while. Race on the 10th, but beyond that I might have to stick with the 914 just to keep the fuel bill sane.
well you do have that thumping V8 in the mustang.
what is it. a 351?
were they still dropping that unit in for that fabo mustang you have.
i compute 10 mpg. sounds pretty economical for one of those.
an aussie would probably be stoked at that slurpage rate.
but ........ know what you mean. petrols off the hook down here in north antarctica.
i've slotted the V6 XM citroen into the back of the shed.
right now its threatening my 6 pack supply with its thirst.
the renault RS clio is at the top of the drive it list.
the 914 sits in the middle. old WW2 tech. sort of economical. but not really.
not around town anyway. you have to stick your boot into it to get it to do anything.
which just helps it mainline its addiction to heavy molecules.
now i have the falcon ute to worry about. big lazy anachronistic straight 6.
measures its drinking in slabs not 6 packs. its a slob.
you got my sympathy. know how you feel.
