Fuel consumption Poll

The best MPG I ever got out of mine was on the M5, Bristol to Taunton, unbelievable fuel economy!

The truck it was sat on didn't fare so well though...

42mpg....I wish. My journeys can be as little as 1-2miles or like tonight where I drive 45 miles, but it took 3 hours!!!

Thank goodness for my new TomTom 6000 which routed me round Epsom or I'd still be in a queue! :lol:

My average is 33mpg.
Best so far has been a 400 mile journey at 40mpg. I've done a few improvements since then.

But it is a TD4 Auto.

I was set on getting an auto, but I'm glad I got the manual. Until I get stuck in traffic of course... but I do miss the economy (and speeeeed) of my 180bhp Golf. Oh, it was 180 for a while, and my god it was worth it, but then the head gasket started to leak and then....... ah, well, on it's last trip I got 75mpg coming back from Oxford. Best ever..

Somethings are surprising though. I had a 3.2 V8 Jag that did 32mpg and a 328 BMW cabrio which returned 34mpg on a 90mph burn down to Spain and back. A lot is down to the driver I reckon. I don't hang about but I'm quite light footed with it. My 1.8 Mk1 MX5 was lucky to hit 30mpg, but I ragged it EVERYWHERE! So endeth the lesson.

I once got 10.2mpg but mostly I get 10.1. Prolly would improve on the freeway but I'm guessing it won't be by a lot.

Holy thread revival batman!

Or am I imagining thing?

Tapatalk seems to have gone mad!

I am averaging 23mpg in my Freelander 2.2SD4 Dynamic.
On a long run at 75 - 80 mph I get 30mpf

it cost me £27:99 to fill the tamk upto day for a round trip to southhampton trip computer said 57 mpg at one point in the 50 average speed limit zone it was doing 61 mpg, oh the mother inlaws honda jazz i drive a 4.6 can only dream of mpg like that if the weather had been bad i woulda taken mine her little jazz cripples my back, knees and shoulders .:hysterically_laughi:hysterically_laughi:hysterically_laughi

lol, when we lived in Croydon I had a D1 300TDI, loved it and got 30MPG on a run which I didn't think was to bad. When we moved over here petrol was really cheap, so got ourselves a V8 - which was fun until petrol prices headed skyward and the repair bills even more so. Outed that for a diesel Freelander - I'll take 40MPG any day!

Looking at those scarey F2 diesel figures though, think I'll be staying F1 for quite a while! Mind you, if you were caught doing 80MPH over here, they'd lock you up and throw the key away. 60's the limit - not 61 or 62 - its 60!!!! (actually 100KMH)

Did a nice long drive this weekend to the parents (approx 150 miles each way) and it appears to have averaged around 40mpg+

Which was nice

2002 TD4 3 door 136000 on clock new injectors month ago tube of 2stroke added every tank Calais to Castellon 763 miles using Clermont Milau bridge route 70mph + or -2 to 5mph fuel consumption 39.7mpg

That was with blizzard just after Milau

First Freelander 1 so checked fuel consumption over a 400 mile period of both town and open road driving, very surprised and pleased to discover it's averaging 39 MPG

2004 TD4 5 door, with a mixture of commuting and motorway driving. Readings taken from full tank to full tank, I now have two data points: 37.6mpg and 37.8mpg or 14p/mile pretty good really for a massive heavy 4x4

My 10 plate Civic, 2.2TDCi so far has given me 52.4mpg over 4500 miles, since I have had it.

Fuel consumption increasing. About 28mpg from last full tank, motorways and A roads. So far about 24mpg in current tank. Not happy with that at all.

2001 TD4 auto 3D only had it about a month getting 33MPG mainly town driving with a 40mile motorway run once a week doing around 150 miles a week... good figures compared to the Terrano T2 I had before...it to was a 3dr auto.

Frequent short trips in my 05 Freelander TD4 Auto - circa 28mpg
In my V8 SIIA Lightweight - er! - 10 - 12 Mostly on bloomin' choke
