Re: 20mpg average for 1987 Turbo wagon? 700 1987

At the low end, but not uncommon at all. Manuals usually get a couple of mpg more than automatics. Most of the figures I read are in the low 20s. Some are right around 20 mpg. Some are in the 25 to 30 mpg range, but this is pretty rare (for a Turbo, which uses more gas and never came with a lock up torque converter). I have never done better than 24-25 mpg, and average 20-22 mpg. I do not drive for economy, so 20 mpg for me may be good.
