Opel Corsa 1.2
 
For our Vacation in Europe, I have rented a
Opel Corsa 1.2 Driving from amsterdam to Munich. Has anyone else rented the same kind
of car? If yes, how was the fuel economy?

I found a website (http://www.carfolio.com/specificatio.../id/?id=118536) that says that fuel Consumption is
7.9 l/100 km urban
4.9 l/100 km extra-urban
6.0 l/100 km combined.

Very economic, indeed!

Fuel capacity is 44 litres, that is 11.6 US gal.
US Gal

Hi

I've rented Corsas.

Very economic, but rather small & slow !

Bigboy, and don't forget:

In Amsterdam: Don't dope and drive!
In Munich: Don't drink and drive!

Thanks for the advice Viennese. I never drive drunk or stoned. Hell, I don't even partake in those things except when we go on vacation and, we always use taxi cabs to get around. I still not be able to go if I can't get my passport before sept 13th.

I posted to fast, Let me say that again.

Bigboy, as I am not a native speaker I felt what you meant :-)

I hope you will get your passport in time. Best wishes from Europe!

bigboy72712 Aug 22nd, 2004 06:45 AM

Hey Viennese, where do you live, Vienna?

viennese Aug 22nd, 2004 06:48 AM

Oops, I'm caught! How did you find out?

bigboy72712 Aug 22nd, 2004 06:56 AM

We wanted to go to Vienna on this trip
but, it is a little to far from munich to drive so we settled on Salzburg as a
town to visit in Austria, Sept 21-22.
We would have liked to meet you.

If not this time, perhaps on your next trip to Europe? Anyway, be sure to make your list of pleasures complete:
Amsterdam - Dutch drugs
Munich - Bavarian beer
Salzburg - Austrian wine, e.g. Grüner Veltliner or Riesling from Wachau. Prost!

bigboy72712 Aug 22nd, 2004 07:07 AM

Hell yeah! Oh we are staying at the Gasthaus, Kohlpeter, ever heard of it?

viennese Aug 22nd, 2004 07:09 AM

I'm sorry, no, I haven't heard of it.
