Hi

I am looking at a Mk3 SWB Hi-top transit Frontier (motorhome) with a 2.0l Petrol Pinto engine.

WHat sorta MPG would you expect to get from this on motorway cruising at 70mph?

Thanks.

That's about what i got from my old Mk3 pinto high top minibus, it had a tail lift so probably ran about the same weight as a motorhome with 5 people (inc 1 in a leccy wheelchair) in it :?
Current fleet
