td4 freelander 1 will give you best bang for the buck, 35ish mpg , good in snow , particularly with winter tyres , the jatco auto is very reliable,

Took a new 2.0 litre diesel Evoque out today with 9spd box, was showing average 28 mpg, long way from lr figures.

Why would you do that?

OP why does mpg bother you? I don't think landy ownership will suit you

Boredom, and it was better than walking to view some machinery

Demonstrators will have sat about ticking over, been driven hard from cold and mostly done short journeys. So probably not a very good real world indicator of mpg potential unless you'd drive it the same. It's also worth looking up and understanding what and how the NEDC fuel efficiency tests are conducted to produce the offical figures.

Anyone that relies on the on board mpg gauge is well very gullible to say the least. Only accurate way is pen to paper.
