Those figures are frightening! They're actually worse than V8 territory! But you've made me feel much better about driving a "ridiculous yank guzzler" :thumbup:

 

6.5 td V8 - I can get 26mpg on a motorway run with an LM186 behind me, even fully loaded on the hills round here it doesn't drop much below 20mpg, and never below 15.

 

You've made my night!:laugh1:

thats good...i get 25. what engine do you have.....the new ones have euro 5? i think which apparently is juicier than the predecessor/

 

Er - the standard one fitted to 57 plates! By juicier do you mean more powerful or more thirsty (or both)?

 

I was defo getting 30mpg semi-rural driving for the first few months so figures above are educated guess but you've got me worried now, especially with Suffolk being flat an' all. I'll have to do some sums over the next couple of tanks...

my dad has an 09 plate navara, automatic and gets 20-22mpg out of it, he did try to do a motorway run at 65 and bumped that upto 24mpg, thats scary esp when you compare it to a defender which can do at least 27-28mpg and eats a navara off road.
