More of a happy report this time. I had a trip from my hometown
(Arendal, Norway) to the capitol (Oslo) thursday, driving my 87 Syncro
8-pax, of course. The trip was a total of 625 kms, of which 500 were
highway driving, at speeds between 80-120 km/h. The rest was city
driving around Oslo, including much goofing, not finding the right way
etc. I also have a quite heave right foot, pushing the van good. Still,
the fuel consumption was only 10,3 liter/100 kms!! I never thought the
112i engine could use so little, especially considering my driving
habit. In a Syncro even!! Now I love this van even more, and it was a
very cool and comfy ride too. Never a problem keeping up with traffic,
rather the traffic going too slow!
