Has anyone got any old editions of What Car or similar for the official urban and 56mph(?) (was there a third figure?) figures for the three 924 variants.

Ta.
 
I have managed to find the following data for the 924

All the figures are the 'official govenment' ones at the time

924 lux 5 speed

Urban 22.8mpg
Steady 56 42.8mpg
Steady 75 34.9mpg

924 Turbo

Urban 23.0mpg
Steady 56 36.2mpg
Steady 75 26.9mpg

924 S 150bhp

Urban 23.0mpg
Steady 56 46.3mpg
Steady 75 34.9mpg

924 S 160bhp

Urban 22.4mpg
Steady 56 42.2mpg
Steady 75 34.0mpg


Unfortunately could not find figures for the early 4 speed version other than road test averages which seem to be around 25.5 mpg
 
The LUX had a plate of 924F on it. The road test was in Autocar Aug 12th 1978

The Turbo had a plate of DMO 412V. Tested in Motor Jan 26th 1980

All this data was found in a very good book published by Brooklands Books called
PORSCHE 924 Gold Portfolio 1975-1988

Which is a compilation of road test reports from the UK and USA on the 924.
