Yeah, I knew it would be bad but thought I would get atleast 350 from a tank. I would have kept the TD4 if it wasnt riddled with problems, when water started coming through the roof it was time to change. (Not through sunroof or hardback either...seeping through roof bar sockets)
200-250 miles is shocking, wont be telling the missus or she will want it gone.

Usually between 17-20mpg on unleaded petrol,maybe 18-21mpg on super/premium,not great but not surprising really as a heavy V6 automatic 4x4.Mine was converted to use LPG by the previous owner so will do the equivalent of 29-32mpg on the 22 mile round trip to work each day.yup - 19mpg and 200 miles to a tank is normal for a v6
crap aint they

.Hi,much as I favour LPG over petrol/diesel for financial/noise reasons it's very expensive £2000+ to convert a Freelander V6.Ready converted ones appear on Ebay/Autotrader now and then,could be worthwhile looking.If you do convert you may have a choice of underfloor/cylinder in the boot,back door(spare wheel)mounted tanks,also an upright donut style tank may be an idea.I dont have a digital camera or I would post pictures,the tank in mine is between the two narrower parts behind the rear seats rising to almost the top of the loadspace cover.You will lose a lot of boot space depending on the size of tank if you use the boot tank option,I stick most things on the floor in the back seats so 9 times out of 10 bootspace is not a problem.No major issues with mine(yet!)
,but fittting LPG to a hot runnning/problem prone engine maybe unwise.
I could not have my V6 without runnning on LPG instead of petrol,my alternative was the usual dull Golf/Focus/Astra trio so when I found the Freelander decided to buy it instead.
