. . . I can be pretty confident that Mellow Yellow is a serious
contender in The Worst Mileage Ever Derby.

In the online survey at http://vanagonwiki.net/index.php/Mileage we see
that typical mileage for 1.9l auto transmission Westys ranges from 16mpg
to 20mpg.

My city mpg = 11. My highway mpg = 15.

If anyone has any suggestions for thing that I haven't already checked
(see http://camping.elliott.googlepages.com/poormileage ) then I'd love
to hear them.

BTW, I just reconfirmed my odo's accuracy yesterday with a GPS when we
hauled the grandkids to Legoland, Carlsbad (USA). I was pretty sure it
was accurate but I am now questioning all my assumptions because there
appears to be nothing wrong with the vehicle, yet it drinks gas at an
alarming rate. It's driving me slowly mad. There has to be a reason.
