Another Newbie!
Hi all,
Just thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Chris, I'm 23 and I live/work down in Sussex. I've always loved 800s since my Dad had a white 827 back in the early 90s. I'm looking to get either an 827 or an 820 Vitessse in the near future, so I'm sure I'll have loads of questions soon!
Just one for now... Roughly what mpg could you realistically expect for an 827 or 820 Turbo?
Cheers, Chris

Welcome to the site.
MPG varies on driving style, plus with an 827 whether it's manual or auto.
The turbos will be more economical as fas as I know. I drive 827 manuals and get 20-22 in town and that's pushing it. Not more than 30 on a run and that's steady 70 ish for a long time.

Hello and welcome, I have a 25 mile round trip everyday to work with a mixture of free flowing A road, town driving, (traffic) and small Village lanes and being in Devon its always up hill and according to the computer on my 89 827 Vitesse its getting 30.9 mpg I have reset it a couple of times and it has always come back to 28-31mpg. I am driving like a vicar though.
