<x-charset iso-8859-1>15mpg (UK) is pretty poor even on short journeys in winter. Most likely it has leaking needle valves in the carb tops. I'm assuming the fuel lines don't leak - pretty obvious if there's a petrol smell though! Does the oil get fuller? That can happen with a damaged fuel pump diaphragm. Sniff the oil - is it rather thin, higher than normal and smelling of petrol? Dave.
