EVERYONE POST YOUR CURRENT MPG!
Hey,
Wondering what everyone is getting for mileage.
Post your year, and model, with your current mileage, and what you get for MPG (and any notes of recent work, improvements or declines)
1996 850 Wagon - 165,000miles - Approx. 18-20mpg average - Just replaced PCV and Oil Filler Cap from FCP
just completed full tune-up as well as reconnecting a loose vacuum line...new (much better) mileage to be reported soon.

RE: EVERYONE POST YOUR CURRENT MPG!
It varies SOOOOOO much depending on the brand of fuel i use and how and where i drive my car.
On the highway through the mountains (not all that hilly) i can get a bit over 30MPG
I live right in the city. I travel a bit out of town occasionally but purely incity traffic it can be as bad as 11.5mpg.
My car (for the Australian market) is in L/100kms I went here http://www.onlineconversion.com/fuel_consumption.htmto convert
7L/100kms - 21L/100kms

1993 960 wagon with 152,000 on the clock. Within the last 20,000 miles the timing belt, spark plugs, water pump, and o2 sensor have been replaced. The throttle body was also cleaned. For normal highway driving, with cruise set at 75 I get a steady 25-26. In town it varies between 17-22.

98 V70 GLT - 23.2 mpg
97 850 R - 24.4 mpg
95 T5R - 21.8 mpg
The T5R got 21.4 mpg on a fairly long trip we took last weekend. Not sure why, but the mpg has been going back up this week. I can usually get about 27 mpg on the highway, around 20-22 around town and the above numbers combined driving. Definitely get a little better mileage in the summer too.

1996 850 n/a with auto.
best I've gotten is 25 on the highway, but I ususally drive 75-80, and my foot is usually in it when the cruise isn't set.
we'll see how I do after this weekend. Going thru and replacing plugs, wires, cap, rotor, and filters. Then next week I have to drive 240 miles to get recalls done. (damn this living in the middle of nowhere)
