ditch the drug dealer wheels.

V8 auto is never good on fuel. short journeys will make it worse.

Does your fuel guage switch to lpg level when running on gas?

I like those wheels and the front of your RR looks very nice.
It might be worth checking your airfilter incase it is in need of being changed.

For the love of God...you have no idea how much petrol you've used..if you believe in land rover guages then i guess you also believe that its going to be a reliable engine..

Fill it up, record the mileage, drive it til its empty..on petrol..then do the maths.
