Just thought I would let you guys know what fuel consumption I just experienced in my new BF Faimont Ghia. I just changed from a BA turbo which, lets just say, fuel consumption was not its best point.
I just drove Melb to Wagga return for work. In the turbo I am sure I would of filled up a couple of times. The way I drive it was next to impossible to get under 10ltr 100k's. The ghia had 600k's on it and I averaged 7.9ltrs for 100k's. As far as I am concerned, amazing. Why Ford doesn't concentrate its marketing on this point I don't know. The six speed auto is an absolute treat. Can't say enough good things about the car. I have driven plenty of different brands and this thing is world class. |
