Here's my MPG's through the past 40 years of Saab driving .
Always have kept a notebook in the glovebox and kept the receipts .
24 MPG 1974 99l {carbuerator} over 150,000 miles
28 MPG 1974 99le {fuel injection} over 20,000 miles
21 MPG 1978 99 turbo over 1000 miles
16 MPG 1979 900 turbo over 10,000 miles
26 MPG 1984 900 16v {n/a , non turbo} over 40,000 miles
22 MPG 1989 900 16v {n/a , non turbo} over 120,000 miles
22 MPG 2000 9-5 3.0 v6 turbo over 200,000 miles
20 MPG 2006 97x 5.3 v8 over 40,000 miles .
usually with midgrade octane gas 87 -89 , but higher octane always seems better .
10,000 miles draws about 400 to 500 gallons of petrol .
Perhaps the 2.3 and 2.8 motor crowd has different numbers .
The 1974 99le was the best in mileage and everything !
The 1979 900 turbo had the worst mpg's , but was the best and most fun !
