There's absolutely no way they're getting 28mpg around town in a 2.3LPT with a slushbox!
No , I dare say not bud! Very unlikely.

Contacted this fellow, he knows it isn’t 16v , he was unable to get eBay to play ball and now it has bids, he can’t change it.

Seems a genuine chap. Recently retired, said would like to keep it but not practical.

Who knows. Looks ok at £820, atm !🤔
