Prospective Subi owner re mileage

[mikephotog]

Looking at my first Subi purchase (2006 SUBARU LIBERTY 4GEN MY07 3.0R AWD on carsales.com.au).
Just wondering what sort of fuel economy I should expect around town (wife going shopping etc) and once a month Melbourne to Ballarat run up the Western Hwy.

Cheers,
Mike.

Iv only had mine for about a month but seem to get 11.2l/100km on average around town. Driving it back from Melbs i got 8.8, but yeah around town expect about 11.

i have been driving mine around town and it does about 11l/100

and down the snow or trips similar about mid eights.


pretty much same as the guy above...

have seen 13l driving in town if you do put your down....

Sydney grid-lock anything up to 17l/100!! Man these things suck fuel like V8's at long idle periods!...other end of the spectrum, Highway, cruise on 130Klms I was getting low 8.2l/100. Women drivers get better round town as they leave the lights more gently it seems.

Not my girlfriend. She has a heavier right foot than I do
