126 Buyers Guide
Darrell:
On a long trip yes. Shorter trips and around town which is kinda what the car was aimed for ....what you getting? :P
smallcox:
I agree with Darrell I could only get 45mpg if I drive the car like a woosss :(
But the later cars had less duration on the cam and higher Compression on the firing stroke so 50mpg is possible, The engine I run now if driven gentle will get 51mpg. [-/
Hey there manufacture quotes, and there still cooking the figures on new vehicles.
Just use it as a guide 8)
GTMaster:
For fuel consumption, my service manual says:
City driving: 7-8.5l/100km
Out of town driving, 70-80km/h average speed: 5.5-6l/100km
Motorway 80-90km/h average speed: 6-7l/100km
I get the best fuel consumption at an average speed of 75-80km/h but sometimes my right foot gets a bit heavy :oops: Also the fuel consumption shot right up in winter from all the cold starting and driving around with the choke on on short trips (as with other cars in winter.)
Amateb8:
"Between 1987-1992, their were 879500 126bis's produced in the FSO Factory".
I wonder how many of the above were sold in RHD to the UK?
Draigflag:
Does this make them more "rare" and there fore (in the future) more collectible? ;D
