thks
that's a really good range
know it depends on so many factors, if i got around 25 mpg on a run i would be pleased
i'm the same, staying in lane 1 , radio on and letting the world go by, lol
will get there eventually

Same here! Had some terrible traffic and a few fast runs down the motorway carrying loads and averaging 35 mpg out the td5, reckon on a gooden driving super eco I squeeze 40 at a pushi'm the same, staying in lane 1 , radio on and letting the world go by, lol
will get there eventually
know i wouldn't get anywhere near 40mpg, lol
Even worse when driving on the M25 , can tell the difference as soon as i enter another motorway
set the cruise control around 65mph and potter along quite happily, keeping out of the way of the normal nut jobs
some D3 owners on a run report 32-34 mpg , but now i've blanked the egrs and fitted the synergy tuning box will be interesting to see what the actual mpg will be
been reading that tuning boxes are suppose to show a far more accurate mpg display on the instrument panel
only time will tell after i brim a few fuel tanks and get an accurate measurement and how it compares with the mpg display ,
will be very interesting to see
According to the handbook, D1 useable capacity is 89 litres / 19.5 Gallon

doing 55-60 following trucks 20 miles down the motorway the needle doesn't wanna move, 80 litres of Nitro Dies will take me round 600 miles i reckon quite comfortably, but i never fill up! 20 litres does me for nearly a week usually
i used to go 600 miles on 35 litres in my fiesta

i get 24mpg in my disco 2 but i drive on tight little lanes to work. oddly my dads range rover L322 gets 28 mpg normally after a weekend of tlc cleaning and polishing and waxing and what have you managed to eek it to 34 mpg on a normal run.
seems 25mpg is around the norm
just blanked my egrs and fitted a tuning box so will be interesting to see how is compares
mpg was the last thing i bought the disco for, seeing that the land rover designer put a house brick on a piece of paper and said, that's the one, lol
wished i had bought a discovery years ago , going from a hippo to a disco is a world apart ,
can see now why they call the hippo a soft off roader
