No don't like wine in particular that was just asking for the most expensive stuff i could find. Reset trip at top of a long hill out of town down to motorway. Coasted down hill and got that reading at bottom. Have had several 60 MPG plus readings doing that on other slopes but 94.6 is my record. Did used to enjoy a JD and lemonade now and again. But can't drink at all now because of medications i have to take. Bit of a bugger really. ;):D

What about alcohol free beer just for the taste of it?:eek:

Yeah!

Just another engine that sounds amazing!

And its fragile nature suites the rest of the car ;)

Buy a more reliable diesel and put a sound track in the CD player. I believe young and stupid use special units with speakers that makes their Corsa sound like a Ferrari. ;):D
 
Thanks for the replies, a P38 as a daily driver for my annual mileage is probably a bit of stretch, back to looking at Freelanders.

Better looking at Hyundai or if you have the budget a Shogan/Pajero.

Datatek has the right idea. Although any older 4x4 isn't going to return the sort of mpg you're hoping for. Any green oval has the caveat , 'if you do high mileage, have a second car'.
Try something like www.sust-it.net , www.honestjohn.co.uk or www.fuelly.com to compare mpg and running costs.

Used to get around 28mpg out of a short wheelbase 2.8 Pajero automatic. Sadly as it was a grey import I couldn't register it in France:(
