Yes, get a diesel!
Is that 14 miles per US gallon or per proper (Imperial) gallon?
Hi "daffy",
For comparison I have a '97 850 AWD wagon and have never been too happy with the fuel consumption: 21 miles/ U.S. gallon, almost all local short trips, but looking at your numbers I should count my blessings. The AWD wagon is heavier too.
Of course I've been "spoiled" having previously owned 240's, 140's 122's and a PV445.
Sorry, can't help solve your problem, other than pump up the tires and drive with a light foot....... :-)
Good Luck. Andy I.
