Anyone got any good figures for what MPG or lt/100km I should expect
from an 00 V70 2.0T 70k, on an extra-urban or combined cycle ? (mostly
4th gear driving, 3-4 traffic lights, 25 miles, 10 times a week) ?

TIA
 
I own a 98 V70 2,0T with 180 HP. Mine's a automatic and gives 12lt/100km

Considering my dads Lincoln Mark VII This is good. Used to have a 93 240
2,3L 116 hp. Manual I got about 11lt/100km.
But on long High way runs it gave 9,3lt/100km. My V70 Gives me 8,5lt/100km.
The 2,4 140hp engine gives better fuel consumption in city but not so good
on high way. The acceleration for the 2,4 engine is terrible after 60 km/h
at least the automatic. You're fuel consumption also varies with you're
tires. I used to run 195/65-15 This gave a bit better number's I change to
205/50-16 gives you a better high way ride but a bit higher consumption.

I have a '99 S-70
2.4 l, 5 cyl, turbo
on a 3000 mile trip through eastern US, I got 30 mpg at 70-75 mph.

So, anywhere between 8.5-12 lt /100km.
Or, 33.8mpg-23.95mpg

If Im getting between 23mpg - 35mpg do I have anything to complain
about ?
Should I worry about a bad MAM, a dirty throttle housing (its been
recently replaced) or an over-rich mixture ? Or should I just swallow
and accept it, and be glad that Ive got heater leather seats, a CD
player, a very safe car, and reasonably size bank loan ?
