20 years ago when I last had my LWB Marlin Roadster 1.8TC on the road I didn't really bother too much about MPG... fast forward to 2024 I am now curious as to how many MPG my Marlin should be expected to return. Although my car has 1 3/4 SUs I have now found the original 1 1/2 SUs in a box. So there are 2 questions, for the 1 1/2 twin SUs does anyone have any MPG figures and just out of interest is there anyone out there running twin 1 3/4 SUs and has checked their MPG?
Although the engine is now running there is still quite a lot of work required to sort out brakes and clutch which are seized after being in storage for so long, so I won't be able to do my own check for some time (hopefully its just the hydraulics that need sorting out). So just out of interest does anyone have any figures on this? I know the much heavier marina 1.8 TC had very poor MPG of low 20s!
