In the city especially though it could have alot of benefit where you could be more worried about the traffic than opening the throttle up..
More throttle to get moving more petrol wasting?.
I drove the old VB from 16 to 29. One thing i notice over the VP is my foot is used much much less to go as fast But unfortunately I'm still not saving petrol

Mitsu's post-1995 Magna 4cyl with the 2.4 went quite well, in all but sales. Gee the whole 380 story has been one botch-job after another since MD Tom Phillips left, and any of the brand-optimism he miraculously re-established has been blown away

Mitsu Aust reminds me of Piggy in Lord of the Flies - unloved, underappreciated, unfairly persecuted .. and soon to die
I drove the 4cyl Commodore my brother owned one, One POS it was so crap.
