70mpg, 80? My god. I reckon thrashing it was still more economical than being in a traffic jam, but it would have been in the teens. Still what else do you earn money for except spending it on things that make you happy? I used to feed it petrol like you feed a dog, saying “good car, we’ll done. Have some more lovely petrol.”
My current Citroën C5 tourer can do 1200 km on a tank of diesel. It’s a very different world!
