Size between a hilux and land rover

[Jack Price]

Can somebody tell me what sort of mpg you get in a landy 110 or 130?

 

It's a pity they don't make them switchable 4wd. The permanent 4x4 makes a lot of roadnoise, reduces mpg and I expect wears tyres out quicker than normal.

 

I get about 30mpg in my old hilux, and have never found the log carrying capacity to be a problem, just the volume for chip, which is why we run two vehicles... a 2wd tipper and the Hilux for pulling the ifor williams/stump grinder and moving logwood.

 

I think we all have the same problem, where can you get a decent sized 4wd tipper? Custom conversion, unimog, or settle for 2wd or run two vehicles.

 

 

you won't get any better than 30mpg out of a td5 or TDI, and if you are getting 30mpg your doing well! nothing beats a landy tho

Oh but it does but you can't get it in the UK Or maybe you can but I'm not letting on

My Landy tipper is greedy on fuel . It doesn't help lugging around a big chip box on the back . My crew cab L200 is brill on fuel compared to the landy or it could just be that the landy is really really bad on fuel ?

I never really felt the love from any of ours. I certainly felt the cold.
