Roadtrip - Tassie by ferry in a 1974 144 Volvo

Drive to Melbourne Be boring if I just said - well it was a 700km drive so what! But it was.   Bugger Mileages were ineresting; At holbrook it was getting    11.8 l/100km (what a shit measurment) Launceston        10.57 l/100km sat on 100 to 110 prefered 103kmp                                         Ferry  I'm boring and love the ferry. Sleep and food is great. We were on level 1 with the 144 as my wife (the owner) requested. First on last off and no caravans to booggy with. Performance  Faultless I cant see why people buy new cars. Sorry wait till electic is worth having. Till then a decent 1970's car will do.
