Nottingham to London and back.

290miles, averaged 40.6 (at best 42.2), average speed 57 (via the A1),remaining range 190.
Nearly 500miles out of a tank seems quite good.


   
   
   
   

I did Newcastle to Skipton and back yesterday.

220 miles, average speed 58 and 39.7 mpg, so quite similar to yours.

That's on a SD4 with just under 7k miles on the clock.

and I guess it might improve with time as the engine eases ?

mine is getting worse not better....got one reading of 42.3, most about 39. 6 but last weeke ones doen to 36.8....

Same here, well the consumption goes up. I think it's due to the fact that I start enjoying the car more and stop worrying about fuel consumption. Give it a try, makes the car even better
