Whats your fuel economy like?

I can get about 10L for about 100 kilomteres, if I drive reasonably...

If I am cruising, it will drop to about 60-75 km for $10...

Is this economy plus or does it drink it?

It's a 1600 carby turbo cordia 4G32T

12.8l per 100km on average...city cycle. and I think with more dyno time this will improve.

Best I got was in my AA GSR was 7.7 litres per hundred from outside Sydney to North Albury. 540kms with only 42 litres used.
Around Melbourne usually 11l/100km.
