thanks

The GTL R11 with 1397cc engine should consume about 7-8 liters/100km in the everyday urban traffic.
When driving on the highway around 90-100km/h the consumption shouldn't exceed 7ltrs/100km


Cheers

R11 in boxes

I find on my 1984 R11 1.4 GTL that the consumption for around town averages between 38 and 45 mpg. On the motorway, irrespective of speed, it can do between 50 and 55 mpg.
Something must be seriously wrong with yours!!!!
In case you didn't know - there is a 'boycott the pumps' campaign concerning fuel prices in the UK. It starts on the 1st August and runs every Monday - DON'T buy petrol on these days - it is a mass campaign. Lets hope someone listens

So I can't attend the British action :))))
My car is perfectly OK - that is the usual consupmtion of a well-aged c2j engine running on the unleaded fuel.
