As you say though, each to his won !

You got it

I wonder how the "Younger" generation, who have a thing for those EJ/EH Holdens get on?

60 on the dial, Policeman pulls them over, "But Officer, it said 60??"

For some of us who learnt imperial at school, filled our cars with gallons, find it easier to equate with distance versus volume. Lires per 100 km means absolutely nothing to me.

Here ya go then.
Multiply by 2.8.
i.e. 10km/l = 28mpg.
